Volodymyr Zelenskyy Can ‘Almost Immediately End the War with Russia if He Wants To’, Says Donald Trump Ahead of White House Talks
Ahead of crucial White House meetings focused on Ukraine’s future, Donald Trump opined that Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has the power to “end the war with Russia almost immediately, if he wants to,” through a series of social media posts. These meetings are set to include support from European leaders like Sir Keir Starmer, aiming to reinforce Ukraine’s position against any potential concessions to Russia. This comes after Mr. Trump’s recent high-profile meeting with Vladimir Putin in Alaska, where Mr. Putin potentially offered a “NATO-like” security guarantee in exchange for relinquishing certain territories. The discussions also aim to prevent a repeat of Mr. Zelenskyy’s last tense visit to the White House, which ended abruptly and led to a temporary halt in US aid to Ukraine.
