Zelensky Calls on World Leaders to Back Peace as Tensions Rise with Trump
The President of Ukraine addresses U.S. criticisms and underscores the importance of global solidarity.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has urged world leaders to make a choice between siding with Russian President Vladimir Putin or advocating for peace, in light of recent remarks from U.S. President Donald Trump.
During his daily address on Wednesday, Zelensky revealed an upcoming meeting with U.S. envoy Keith Kellogg, expressing optimism for a productive dialogue with the United States.
This announcement follows President Trump's characterization of Zelensky as a 'dictator without elections' and his allegations of the misuse of American aid, comments that have sparked backlash from European leaders and members of the U.S. Congress.
In response, European countries have committed to increasing their defense budgets and reiterated their dedication to Ukraine's sovereignty.
At the same time, U.S. envoy Kellogg has arrived in Kyiv for talks with President Zelensky, underscoring the significance of U.S. security assurances in preventing further Russian aggression.
The atmosphere remains charged as Ukraine nears the third anniversary of Russia's invasion, with ongoing discussions about the future of international support and diplomatic initiatives.
