Zelensky invites Trump to Ukraine "to come and see" the destruction
ai generated text
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has repeatedly urged US President Donald Trump to visit Ukraine in order to gain a better understanding of the conflict with Russia. Zelenskyy believes that Trump's visit would provide him with valuable insight into the situation, which would ultimately inform his decisions regarding the conflict.
This was not a mistake. A mistake is something like imposing tariffs on penguins. What we saw in Sumy is a deliberate continuation of a genocidal invasion. Our real mistake is not helping Ukraine enough.
The Kyiv regime continues to use the Ukrainian population as a human shield, placing military facilities and holding events with the participation of soldiers in the centre of a densely populated city.
Putin never wanted an end to the war. Putin never wanted us to be independent. Putin wants to destroy us completely — our sovereignty and our people.
We will not prepare anything. It will not be theatre. You can go exactly where you want, in any city which [has] been under attacks.
I believe that Russian narratives prevail in the United States. It seems to me that the vice-president is justifying Putin's actions. This is a change in reality. The Russians are the aggressors, and we are the victims.
Russian terror continues every day and every night.
Putin can't be trusted. I told that to President Trump many times. So when you ask why the ceasefire isn't working – this is why.
Please, before any kind of decisions, any kind of forms of negotiations, come to see people, civilians, warriors, hospitals, churches, children destroyed or dead.
Instead of mischaracterizing Vice President Vance's rhetoric, President Zelensky should be focused on bringing this conflict to a peaceful conclusion. His comments are counterproductive to the goal of achieving peace for his country.
I've actually watched and seen the stories, and I know what happens is you bring people, you bring them on a propaganda tour, Mr. President.
President Zelenskyy and Crooked Joe Biden did an absolutely horrible job in allowing this travesty to begin. There were so many ways of preventing it from ever starting. But that is the past. Now we have to get it to STOP, AND FAST.
I think it was terrible. And I was told they made a mistake. But I think it's a horrible thing. I think the whole war is a horrible thing.
Listen, when you start a war, you know that you can win the war, right? You don't start a war against somebody that's 20 times your size and then hope that people give you some missiles.
No one accidentally uses a cluster munition warhead against a crowded city centre on a major holiday.
