Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said Kyiv would like to end the war with Russia next year through “diplomatic means” as both countries prepare for President-elect Donald Trump’s return to the White House.
In an interview with the Ukrainian media outlet Suspilne, Zelenskyy said he is certain that the war will end “sooner” than it otherwise would have once Mr. Trump becomes president.
The prospect of Trump returning to power in the United States next year has raised questions about the future of the conflict, as the Republican has been critical of U.S. military aid to Kyiv.
Zelenskyy said that Ukraine “must do everything so that this war ends next year, ends through diplomatic means.”
He’s likely just going to flee to US or UK in the end.
He could’ve fled long ago if he wanted instead of facing the risk and staying. I respect him for that.
You are saying this as if he is Yahya Sinwar fighting on the front line and dying a warrior’s death.
He has to stay till the last moment if he wants to keep political power. He’s not in any personal danger.
