Putin says Russia must speed up Ukraine conflict decision-making as winter approaches

Russian President Vladimir Putin said on Tuesday that the country needed to speed up decision-making in relation to the military campaign in Ukraine. Speaking at the first meeting of a new coordination council to manage the government's work on the home front, Putin said increased coordination of government structures and regions was necessary. A day before, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said that his country was "breaking down" the Russian army. "Russian potential is wasted on this madness, on the war against our state and the entire free world," he said. Zelenskyy also said the coming winter would be the most difficult in the country's history. This month, Russia started a new campaign using long-range cruise missiles and Iranian-made drones to attack Ukraine's energy infrastructure ahead of winter.
