Zelenskyy: Russia 'can only be forced into peace'

UNITED NATIONS — Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy told the United Nations on Tuesday that Russia could only be forced into a peace settlement, as he vowed not to negotiate on Moscow's terms to end the war.

Addressing a special UN Security Council session attended by a representative of Russia, Zelenskyy also joined the United States in pressuring Iran and North Korea over their alleged military support to Moscow.
