Trump tends Zelenskyy to end the war on social media before meeting with European leaders

US President Donald Trump has asked Ukraine to give up the hopes of returning to the attached Crimea or join NATO while he is ready to host President Volodimir Zellinski and European leaders in Washington on Monday afternoon.

After the red carpet of Russian President Vladimir Putin in Alaska, comments made by Trump on social media on Sunday night indicated that he will pressure Zelinski strongly at the Monday meeting to end the bloody European war in 80 years.

Trump said in fact, “Zelinski can end the war with Russia almost immediately, if he wants, or he can continue to fight,” Trump said. “Remember how you started. The Crimea that Obama gave (12 years ago, without shooting!), And does not go to NATO by Ukraine.”

The Crimea, which most countries have recognized as the lands of Ukraine since the dissolution of the Soviet Union in 1991, were included by Russia in 2014, during the presidency of Barack Obama.

Meanwhile, officials said that the war that killed tens of thousands of thousands, as Russia fired missiles and drones in overnight attacks killed seven people in Kharkiv, including two children, officials said.

“They hit an ordinary residential mass, many apartments, many families lived here, young children, children’s stadium, residential complex. There are no offices here or anything else, we lived here safely in our homes,” said Olina Yakushva, the local resident, while firefighters were fighting fire in construction and rescue in the pole.

On the battlefield, Russia was grinding slowly forward, pressing the house Its advantages in men and fiery power.

“The whole world is looking”

The White House said that Trump will first meet Zelinski at 1:15 pm East time, and then about two hours after Britain, Germany, France, Italy, Finland, the European Union and NATO, who fly to Washington to show solidarity with Ukraine and to pressure strong security guarantees in any post -war settlement.

Ukraine and its allies have long been afraid that Trump has been able to pressure a favorable agreement for Moscow. However, they reached some developments, including Trump’s apparent preparation to provide post -settlement security guarantees to Ukraine.

European leaders made a call with Zelenskyy on Sunday to comply with a joint strategy for meetings with Trump.

“It may not be an exaggeration to say that the whole world is looking for Washington,” German Foreign Minister Johan Wadil said at a press conference.

In an interview with Fox News a long time after the Putin summit, Trump said, “European countries … must get a little involved.”

However, Zelenskyy has already rejected the Putin proposal plan from the Alaska meeting, including Ukraine to abandon the rest of the eastern Donetsk region, which is currently controlling one quarter. The Ukrainian forces are deeply dug in Donetsk, whose towns and hills operate as a decisive defensive zone for Russian attacks.

Zelenskyy also seeks to immediately cease to have a deeper peace conversation. Trump previously supported this, but he reflected the path after the summit with Putin and pointed to the support of Russia’s preferred approach to negotiating a comprehensive deal while fighting it.

The Ukrainian president said after his arrival in Washington late Sunday that he was grateful to Trump for the invitation.

“We all want to end this war quickly and reliably,” Zelinski said in the Telegram application. “Russia must end this war – the war that has started. I hope to force our common strength with America and with our European friends Russia for real peace.”

Rocky United States Ukraine relationship

The urgent need to buy Ukraine for us and intelligence weapons, which have no viable alternative, forced Zelinsky and his allies to work with Trump.

The relations between Kiev and Washington, which was very close, were rocky since Trump returned to the White House in January. Zelenskyy is seeking to avoid repeating the bad abbreviated meeting in Washington, which was held in February, where Trump, JD Vance and a correspondent of a right -wing American network.

Two weeks ago, US Defense Minister Beit Higseth was undermining the financial lever that might be held in future talks, saying that it is unrealistic that Ukraine return to its borders before 2014 and that NATO membership in Ukraine will not be part of a peace deal.

Trump cleared the 2024 campaign path around the amount of military aid management, Joe Biden, which is provided by Ukraine, so that much spending was benefiting from American military contractors. The Trump administration has not committed any new financing for Ukraine in the last budget bill, instead, setting a deal for European countries to buy US -making weapons.

During his first presidential term, Trump was isolated in 2019 by the House of Representatives after it was revealed that he tried to recruit Zelenskyy, then in his first weeks as President of Ukraine, in a plan that would smoke Biden. Trump was acquitted by the Senate, but during the dismissal process, the prosecution continued that Ukraine intervened in the 2016 US elections to assist Democrat Hillary Clinton in the victory, which was rejected by intelligence experts As a conspiracy theory.
