The next few months of the Russian-Ukrainian war will be decisive, so Ukraine and its allies must get ahead of the Russian Federation and its satellites, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said at the annual ceremony of the Golden Plate Award of the American Academy of Achievement in New York on Monday.

"We don't have much time. The next few months will be decisive. In this war - Russia's war against Ukraine and all of you, because this is Russia's war against freedom itself - we are short of time to define what the outcome will be. And we must define it. Not Russia, not their bloody allies," Zelenskyy said.

"We need to be faster. We need not to lose the next few months in war, so that we don’t lose next decades... Right now we all hold the power to shape the world our children and their children will live in," the head of the Ukrainian state added.
