Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy is ready to share his big plan to win the war against Russia. This plan is a mix of military strategies, political moves, diplomatic steps, and economic actions. Zelenskyy hopes this plan will strengthen Ukraine's position in future peace talks with Russia. However, no country has publicly supported or commented on this plan yet.

The timing is crucial for Zelenskyy. He wants to have this plan in place before the next U. S. president takes office. But Ukrainian officials aren't sure if the new president will be much help. Right now, Ukraine's military is facing tough times. They're losing ground in the east, and Russia is advancing towards a key logistics hub. Ukraine is also struggling with low troop numbers, limited ammo, and Russia's control over the skies.

It's not clear how much of the plan Zelenskyy will reveal. Some officials say he'll share everything, while others think he'll keep the most sensitive parts secret. Either way, Ukraine's allies have a big say in its future. Without their support, any deal with Russia could be bad for Ukraine. The war has already cost Ukraine a lot of territory and lives.

Some parts of the plan are already known. Ukraine wants to join NATO, use Western long-range weapons to hit targets deep inside Russia, and get more resources to strengthen its defenses. They also want to increase sanctions on Russia. In August, Ukraine even launched a surprise attack in Russia's Kursk region, capturing some territory. This could be a bargaining chip in future talks.

NATO's Article 5 says an attack on one member is an attack on all. Ukraine joining NATO could stop Russia from invading again. But Western leaders are worried this could make things worse. They're also busy with other issues, like a conflict between Israel and Hezbollah that could involve Iran.

Zelenskyy has visited many Western capitals to share his plan. But no one has said they'll support it yet. The U. S. has been Ukraine's main backer, but they're worried using long-range weapons could make the war worse. They're also dealing with other problems.

Some expect the next U. S. president to keep doing what Biden is doing. Others aren't sure what the new president will do. Meanwhile, countries like Brazil and China have suggested their own peace plans. But Zelenskyy thinks these plans would just give Russia time to recover.
