Zelansky accused Trump of being a victim of the Russian “disintendation” and vowed not to be bound by any peace deal made without Ukraine. This was an American post under former President Joe Biden.
But open violations with the leader of Zelansky’s most important colleague raise deep questions about Ukraine’s ability to fight.
Senior officials from the US and Russia met for the first round of talks on ending the war in Saudi Arabia on Wednesday. Ukraine was not invited, fulfilling the apprehensions that a deal to end the war would arrive without the participation of Kiev. Putin said on Wednesday that he considered the result of the meeting in Riyadh positively.
Putin told reporters, “We have not seen each other for a long time.” He reiterated that he was ready to meet with “Donald”, but further preparation was required before a summit.
Trump said on Tuesday evening that he and Putin would meet before the end of the month.
In this presence, Trump blamed Ukraine for Russia’s invasion and said that Zelansky’s public support was 4% – a level believed by all available voting – and mentioned that Ukraine has not selected during war, A demand made by Kremlin. ,
In response, Zelansky exited the US President accusing him of living in a Russian “dissolution place”.
Zelenskiy is supported by 57% Ukrainians, above 52% from a similar survey conducted in December, according to a 4–9 pole of 1,000 people by Keiv International Institute of Sociology.
In Washington, Trump’s latest comments criticized some Republican MPs who supported Ukraine in the past.
“Russia is aggressive, there is no question about that,” the Senate majority leader John Theun told reporters. “He can speak for himself, but I think there is no question of who started the war.”
European colleagues struggled to live with a change in American situation. The European Union’s foreign policy head, Kaza Kalas, said, “Russian story is really gaining land.”
“Only those who are saying that it was Ukraine who is to blame, Russians,” he told Bloomberg in an interview in Cape Town, South Africa.
