China can quickly end the war if it wants to, but China is interested in receiving cheap energy from Russia, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy believes.

"If China wants to end the war quickly, it can do it with these leaders. The United States has the desire. In India, I think they are more inclined to end this war faster. I think this is an important point," Zelenskyy said in an interview for Ukrainian journalists on a telethon broadcast on Friday.

The president explained that Russia will not survive thanks to its domestic economy, and the best sanction would be if India and China did not support the export of Russian energy resources, or "simply banned it or were able to take steps to reduce the price of energy resources." "I think that after this, for a year, Russia will not be able to fight at that level," the head of the Ukrainian state said.
