Zelenskiy Challenges Trump to Reveal Plans for Quick End to War

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy said Donald Trump should come forward with his plan to quickly end the war with Russia, warning that any proposal must avoid violating the nation’s sovereignty.

“If Trump knows how to finish this war, he should tell us today,” Zelenskiy said in a Bloomberg Television interview in Kyiv on Wednesday. “If there are risks to Ukrainian independence, if we lose statehood – we want to be ready for this, we want to know.”

The former US president, who leads in polls over President Joe Biden ahead of the November election, has boasted that he’ll end the war by the time he’s inaugurated in January. In the televised debate last week, Trump decried the billions of dollars spent on Ukraine’s defense, saying that Kyiv is “not winning the war.”

Trump will say Zelensky YOU'RE FIRED!

[jorgefierro]

The poor want peace ✌️ the rich want war 😢

[StarWarsMan]

I think Trumps solution is to tell Ukraine to surrender

[JanetUrban-trcz]

Pray to God for peace. Glory to God in the highest. Peace on earth. No wars🙏

[BoredShitless]

Trump will stop the money train so he'll have to stop 🤷🏻‍♂️

[IlyaTERA]

And for 2 years the media has been saying that Ukraine is winning 😂😂😂

[johnnywalker]

He's a comedian and no one's laughing.

Wstrętny dziad, owinął sobie wokół palca cały świat. Wszyscy dawają i ciągle mało? Gdzie te przekazane Ukrainie miliardy? Na pewno nie trafiły na front, ani na uzbrojenie, tylko do kieszeni skorumpowanych oligarchów Wojna toczy się na 20% terytorium ich kraju, reszta żyje normalnie. Rządzący zacznijcie myśleć.

We are done paying your bills. Let the people who live in the disputed areas decide for themselves which country they want to be a part of.

[kellykwongali]

Just please end the war.
Please.

Please.
As a former soldier, I'm asking from the depths of my heart to please end this war. Please. Both sides.

[LeeG-ioti]

The gravy train is over for him. Trump owes this man absolutely nothing

[SolomonObonyiro]

This is what it looks like when you find yourself in the middle of nowhere

[sssseeeeeeeeeeyyyyaa]

He's not going to tell you anything. He will simply stop all your funds 😊

In April 2022, in Istanbul, Russia proposed that Ukraine remain in a neutral status and not join NATO. But Ukraine decided to fight and withdrew from the negotiations. So who's to blame?

[constantinbangean]

Zelenski has taught himself to tell everyone what to do . I think he needs to come down to earth ....

[TrevorNetshisaulu-bvjl]

In life you must never allow your self to be used this way, never.

[johnjosephhogan]

Hi Mr Zelenskiy,
I’m for peace and from Ireland.
Point (1)
Did you know that NATO was specifically set up against the USSR in the late 1940’s. Today that is against Russia.
Point (2)
If you join NATO, you are making a statement I am against Russia, and will support the WEST’ against Russia “your neighbour”
“Nice dirty one that is”
Point (3)
What human Being likes to be Provoked, please tell me. ? ?
History lesson Time for you.
Check out the Cuban Missle Crisis
Well
Created entirely by the UNITED STATES, when nuclear weapons were installed in Turkey, and provoked Russia to respond.
Do you see any similarity here, occurring right now.

[jackbaron]

Anyone who can think for ones self can see what this is about, u just getting money from this while the people of russia and ukraine suffer !

[BushidoBasher]

Um what? You were complaining about money! You don't care about Ukrainians. You just want more money. Ukraine's independence was on the line multiple times through different coups.

Zelenskyy is just another grifter.

[dbozexpat]

He's trying to use reverse psychology, but its not working.
