00:19While stopping over in Halifax, Canada, where he met with Canadian President Mark Carney, President Zelensky also held a call with European leaders, including European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen.
00:32Von der Leyen said the goal was to secure a just and lasting peace that preserves Ukraine's sovereignty and territorial integrity.

00:54In the run-up to the talks, Russia launched yet another massive missile and drone strike on the Ukrainian capital, Kiev, on Saturday, killing two people and injuring dozens.
01:05According to Zelensky, the latest attack on Kiev shows President Vladimir Putin doesn't want peace.

02:48Final results will not be known until after two more rounds of voting are completed in January.
02:54But the ballot is widely been dismissed as a sham, with major political parties dissolved, leaders jailed, and as much as half the country not expected to vote due to an ongoing civil war.
03:08Observers say the junta, with China's support, is seeking to legitimize its power as it seeks a way out of the devastating stalemate in the country.
