Ukraine's President Volodymyr Zelensky has given a speech to participants of the Halifax International Security Forum, on Saturday, addressing a possible end to the Russia-Ukraine war and opposing a potential truce with Russia. In the speech, Zelensky stated that "the end of the war does not guarantee peace. Russia is now looking for a short truce – a respite to regain strength. Someone may call this the war's end. But such a respite will only worsen the situation."

The speech, titled "For peace to exist, we must make all elements of Russian aggression impossible", justifies the continuation of fighting against the Russian invasion and adjudication to a cease of fire in the near future. This comes after Ukrainian successes in southern Ukraine, particularly in Kherson.
