A new blow to Ukraine. Trump accused Ukrainians in three years of war, lied about the rating of Zelensky and insists in the election – the main thing

Trump’s statements were heard at his Florida residence in Mar-A-Savar, where the US President gave a press conference and answer to a number of journalists’ questions.

American TV channel CNN voiced such estimates about this “A new strike of Trump ”on the position of official Kiev:“ It would seem that things for Ukraine could not be gloomy. But then President Donald Trump spoke. Following the exclusion of President Vladimir Zelensky from the first negotiations of the United States with Russia to end the war, Trump had false Ukraine on February 18 of February on February 18 of resolving a conflict that devastated its land and killed thousands of people. “

CNN also calls a series of Trump’s statements about Vladimir Zelensky his “The most hostile comments about the Ukrainian leader. ” TV channel emphasizes that Trump “He voiced another thesis of Vladimir Putin – that it was time for elections in Ukraine – in a probable attempt to start the process of posting Zelensky. “

Verbal attack on Zelensky – which is still in the United States until recently “He was glorified as a hero for resistance to Russian blitz cliga at the beginning of the war ” – CNN calls” a striking sign of how the new US administration has changed Washington’s position to support the victim of the invasion and now rewards the aggressor. “

These comments by the US President “New concerns in Europe, which was also excluded from Saudi Arabia’s negotiations that Trump “He will try to impose a peaceful agreement that benefits him in the Kremlin, ”CNN predicts. TV channel stresses that Trump’s statements “They are directly contrary to the US Secretary of State Marco Rubio, who stated after meeting with a Russian delegation that any future peace agreement will be fair for all parties.

NV cites Donald Trump’s main statements on February 18, the US and Russia negotiations and future “peaceful” agreements.

He rejected the indignation of Ukraine because of the unreasonable negotiations in Saudi Arabia and transferred to Kiev the responsibility for three years of a full -scale invasion of Russia. In response to the request of the reporters to voice the message for Ukrainians, indignant and “betrayed” by the exception of Ukraine from the first contacts of the US and the Russian Federation in Riyadh, Trump said: “I think I have the power [power— також можна перекласти як владу або спроможність]to put an end to this war. And I think things are going well. But today I heard: “Ah, we were not invited.” Well, you have [України] It was three years. You should put an end to this in three years. You never had to start that [Україна непочинала війну зРФ ані в2014 році, ані в2022— прим. ред]. You could conclude an agreement, ”Trump said falsely. He also argued, apparently referring to a hypothetical opportunity in the past that allegedly could conclude an agreement for Ukraine, “which would leave them almost all of the land, and no one would die, and no city would be destroyed and no dome [стародавніх храмів] would not be demolished. ” “But they are [Україна] They decided not to do this way, ”Trump said. He did not specify what Ukraine could also resist the brutal unprovured invasion of Russia and its numerous military crimes against civilian Ukrainians, which lasted from the first days of February 2022. At the same time, Trump made it clear that the “disappointed” indignation of Ukraine because of the actual exclusion of it from the first stage of negotiations.

He lied about the rating of Zelensky and hinted that he considers the necessary elections in Ukraine. Answering a reporter’s question about whether the US can support such an idea when the Russian Federation pushes Ukraine before the election before the final peace agreement was concluded, Trump said: “We have a situation where there was no election in Ukraine – we have martial law […]When the leader of Ukraine, I am really unpleasant to say it, but its approval rating is only 4%. [Ценеправда, заданими КМІС від січня 2025 року 52% українців довіряли Зеленському, недовіряли— 39% – прим. ред.]. So, I would say – you know they [українці] They want places at the negotiating table. It can be said that the people of Ukraine should not say their word – because [в Україні] There was no election for a long time. It is not in Russia. This is what comes from me and many other countries [яких саме— Трамп неконкретизував]”.

He called negotiations with the Russian Federation in Saudi Arabia “very good”. “Russia wants to do something. They want to stop wild barbarism, ”Trump said as if Russia was the first to launch a barbaric war against Ukraine. The US President also actually equated the aggressor and Ukraine as a victim of invasion, stating that “both Russia and Ukraine are losing thousands and thousands of soldiers, and many [цивільних] People were also killed. ” At the same time, Trump stated that as a result of negotiations in Riyadh, he is “much more confident” in the possibility of concluding an agreement on the war of the Russian Federation against Ukraine.

He stated that Russia was able to quickly destroy Kyiv, but saves rockets. “Ukraine is destroyed to the ground, most cities in ruins, houses are destroyed. It looks like a huge dismantling site. With Kiev [росіяни] They did not, because probably do not want to use too many rockets. They were destroyed by 20%, but not 100%. If they wanted to destroy 100%, then it would probably happen very quickly. But there are cities that are completely devastated, ”Trump said, Adding that part of Ukraine now “looks like a gas”.

Accused Ukraine of shaking US money. Trump revealed Vladimir Zelensky’s previous statements, stating that he “does not know ”where to go “over $ 350 billion »US support. “Where is all this money? Nobody knows where they are. Ukraine will have to pay or understand where the money went, ”the US President said. [Уряд України неодноразово звітував про використання західної допомоги, а міжнародні аудиторські організації, включно замериканськими, незнаходили суттєвих порушень— прим.ред.]

Confirmed that he would seek first of the ceasefire. Trump has repeatedly stated that he wanted to end this “meaningless” war. He made it clear that it was several stages of probable arrangements, the first of which should be a ceasefire. “We have either a ceasefire or peace and we strive to reach both of them. Let’s start with the ceasefire, ”Trump said.

He supported the idea of ​​a European contingent in Ukraine. Trump said that he would “do not deny” against the deployment of troops of European countries in Ukraine as a security instrument. “If they want to do it, it’s great. I’m for that. If they want to do it, I think it will be good, ”the US President said, adding that France and Britain were already voiced.

Excluded the presence of US troops in Ukraine, but stated that “Nobody asked him” to withdraw US forces from Europe. Trump once again stated that US military would not participate in a peacekeeping mission in Ukraine, “because we are very far.” The US President also claims that no one asked him to withdraw all US troops from Europe if peace agreement is concluded [раніше Росія наполягала навиведенні військ НАТО зкраїн Східної Європи— прим. ред.]. “So I do not think we will have to do it. I would not like to do that. But this question has never been raised, ”Trump says.

He hopes to meet Putin by the end of November. “Probably,” Trump said when he was already coming from a press conference, and reporters asked him if he would meet Putin by late February.

He repeated that Putin would never have attacked Ukraine if President was Trump. This thesis was repeated by the US President in the answers to almost all the questions concerning Ukraine.

He did not say any critical word to Russia or Putin and the blame of the Russian Federation in the war. Trump has traditionally accused Joe Biden’s administration of the fact that three years of a full -scale invasion of Russia became so devastating for Ukraine, but said nothing that Moscow and Russian dictator Vladimir Putin were guilty of both war and hundreds of war crimes, committed in the territory of Ukraine and against Ukraine.
