Think first, speak later: Zelensky on Trump's statements on the imminent end of the war
Kyiv • UNN
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has criticized Donald Trump's statements about ending the war in Ukraine soon, questioning the former US president's strategy.
President Volodymyr Zelenskyy reacted sharply to former US President Donald Trump's statements about ending the war in Ukraine as soon as possible and called for "thinking first and then speaking," UNN reports.
My position is, let's imagine that we do not agree to give up our territories... What if we decide not to say what Trump wants to hear from us and he stops helping us? And Putin, let's say, occupies us after a certain period of time. Then the question is, what will Trump do after that, if after Ukraine Russia occupies a NATO country? I mean, he decided that if he allows Putin to fully enter Ukraine, then he will stop, but that will not happen. The question is what Donald Trump and the US will do after that."
According to the Head of State, this will mean that Europe has lost the largest and most powerful army in Europe - Ukraine.
"So first think, and then say," Zelensky added.
