In an address early Tuesday, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky predicted victory over Russian President Vladimir Putin’s forces in Ukraine and offered Russian troops a “chance to survive” by surrendering.

“Russian conscripts! Listen to me very carefully,” Zelensky warned. “Russian officers! You’ve already understood everything. You will not take anything from Ukraine. You will take lives. There are a lot of you. But your life will also be taken. But why should you die? What for? I know that you want to survive.”
