Zelensky's Leadership Strengthens Amid Ceasefire Issues

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky's leadership has strengthened amid ongoing conflict and international negotiations, as recent actions by Russia and the U.S. have intensified the situation. Despite a temporary ceasefire agreement between Presidents Trump and Putin, Russia has continued drone attacks on Ukrainian civilian infrastructure, contradicting its promise. Zelensky's approval ratings have surged, partly due to his resistance against U.S. pressure to make concessions, portraying him as a defiant leader. Ukraine has also targeted Russian energy facilities, impacting Moscow's economy and military funding. Meanwhile, former President Petro Poroshenko faces sanctions from the Ukrainian government, which he claims undermine democracy. As peace talks continue, Zelensky insists on no territorial concessions to Russia, highlighting the complex geopolitical dynamics at play.
