Zelensky: Putin Has Triggered a De Facto World War III, Urges Stronger Pressure on Russia

In a BBC interview, Zelensky says Putin has effectively started World War III and that only sustained military and economic pressure can prevent further escalation. He warns that ceding Ukrainian territory would invite renewed aggression, calls for stronger air defenses (including licensed Patriot missiles) and long-term security guarantees, and asserts that Ukraine aims to restore its 1991 borders while elections could occur only with credible security guarantees.

Zelensky: Putin Triggered World War III, Won’t Cede Ukrainian Land

Zelensky told the BBC that Putin has already started World War III with the 2022 invasion and warned that any territorial concessions would embolden Moscow. He refused to cede parts of Donetsk, Kherson and Zaporizhzhia, calling potential withdrawals an ‘abandonment’ of hundreds of thousands of residents and noting that peace talks have stalled. While he previously floated referendums, Kyiv now insists on defending its territory and seeks long‑term guarantees from allies. He argued victory will come with sustained Western support, and highlighted ongoing battlefield gains and the need for more weapons. Leaders may change, but institutions must endure, he said.
