Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky reported that intelligence indicated Russia was preparing a new large-scale attack against Ukraine.

Zelensky said that energy and logistics infrastructure were expected to be the primary targets of the attack. He expressed concern that developments in Ukraine and the country's needs for air defense systems and Patriot missiles could be overlooked as the US midterm elections dominate the international agenda.

Calling on the international community to send strong messages to Russia, Zelensky stressed that terrorism must not benefit Russia. He stated that as long as the war continues, Russia's oil revenues must be targeted and the country must be prevented from profiting from international trade. Zelensky emphasized that no concessions should be made regarding oil and natural gas revenues.

Zelensky said that pressure on Russia must be increased to a level where it has no choice but to end the war. He noted that the United States could take effective steps in this regard.
