The president of Ukraine, Volodymyr Zelensky, highlighted this Friday that the president-elect of the United States, Donald Trump, has listened to kyiv’s position and has anticipated that The war will end sooner with the arrival of the new Republican administration than it would have done with President Joe Biden.
“It is clear that with the policies of the team that will now lead the White House, the war will end sooner. That is his position and his promise to public opinion, and it is very important for them,” Zelensky said in an interview with Ukrainian public television, Suspline.
The Ukrainian head of state has also insisted that for Ukraine “it is very important to have a just peace” so that justice is done after losing its “best people” in the war. Zelensky has added that in his recent interactions, Trump “has heard the basics” of what Ukraine is asking for. “I have not heard anything against our position,” has indicated about the reaction of the Republican.
The Ukrainian president has repeatedly spoken in public about the need to end the war as soon as possible, but calls for peace to come under conditions acceptable to kyiv. So, rejects for the moment ceding territories and underlines the need to receive credible security guarantees.
Trump has promised that will promote negotiations to end the war as soon as possible. However, Ukraine fears that the peace proposed by the Republican wants to be imposed on it in exchange for giving up the territories occupied by Russia.
