Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky on Thursday expressed confidence in his country’s victory over invading Russian forces, as the United Nations marked the eve of the war’s first anniversary by voting overwhelmingly to demand Moscow withdraw.

KYIV, Ukraine –

“We have not broken down, we have overcome many ordeals and we will prevail,” Zelensky said on social media. In the capital Kyiv, which saw Russian troops at its doorstep at the start of the invasion last February and which has suffered relentless attacks since, residents remained defiant. In Moscow, President Vladimir Putin promised victory as he laid flowers at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier before meeting soldiers in Red Square under blue skies and brisk temperatures.

The UN General Assembly voted Thursday to demand Russia immediately and unconditionally withdraw its troops from Ukraine and called for a “just and lasting” peace in the war-torn country. The G7 said that for 2023, based on Ukraine’s needs, it had increased its commitment of economic support to $39 billion.

“The United States will implement sweeping sanctions against key sectors that generate revenue for Putin,” White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre told reporters Thursday.
