On cam: Zelensky rallies the world against Putin as Kremlin revives ‘Neo-Nazi Ukraine’ war narrative

Volodymyr Zelensky has unleashed a blistering attack on Vladimir Putin, declaring the Russian leader “mortal” and accusing Moscow of preparing for more war instead of peace. In an Independence Day address, Zelensky urged America and Europe to intensify pressure on Russia, demanding tougher sanctions and weapons capable of forcing Moscow toward negotiations. Putin hit back by defending Russia's military campaign and accusing Kyiv of making neo-Nazi ideology central to Ukrainian statehood. Meanwhile, the Kremlin says a future Putin-Trump meeting remains possible. Is this war of words setting up an even bigger confrontation?
