Volodymyr Zelesnky has warned Vladimir Putin “will not survive” as the Ukrainian leader rubbished Russia’s war of attrition.

Zelensky, 45, dismissed his Russian counterpart during an interview with Brazil’s TV Globo.

He said: “Putin won’t live that many years. He did not fight in Syria at the pace he is fighting us.

“That is why he will not stand 30 years. He will not exist, he will die.”
