Kyiv • UNN
The President of Ukraine congratulated Donald Trump on his victory in the US presidential election, where he won 279 electoral votes. Zelenskyy recalled their previous meetings and discussions of Ukraine's Victory Plan.
President Volodymyr Zelenskyy congratulated Donald Trump on his victory in the US election and said that they have teamwork at the team level. Zelensky said this in a video message, UNN reports.
"Today is a really special day, and all over the world, one news is grabbing everyone's attention. The absolutely convincing result of the elections in America. Clear leadership of President Trump. I congratulate him on this victory," Zelensky said.
Zelensky noted that in Ukraine and throughout Europe, it was extremely important to hear the words of the then 45th President of the United States about peace through strength.
"And when this is the policy principle of the 47th President of the United States, America and the whole world will definitely benefit from it. It is not for nothing that Ronald Reagan is so often mentioned nowadays - people want confidence, they want freedom, they want a normal life. And for us, this is a life without Russian aggression and with a strong America, a strong Ukraine, and strong allies. This year, we have already spoken with President Trump on the phone in July and in person at a meeting in September, and these were good conversations. We have interaction at the team level," Zelenskyy said.
Zelenskyy noted that, as always, Ukraine undoubtedly appreciates the bipartisan support of the United States.
"We talked about all the points of the Victory Plan. At the meeting in New York, as well as at meetings in Washington - in Congress, in the White House. We have the potential for stronger cooperation on defense, on the economy, and on the future after the war. This is what will make Ukraine, America, and the entire free world more successful," Zelenskyy said.
