Zelenski held a conversation in the thin Horn, where he discussed the consequences of the ongoing war and expressed concern about the possible direction of the United States policy under Donald Trump. He pointed out how crucial it is to stand firm against Russian aggression, informing that deficiency of firmness could turn local conflict into a global crisis.
Our nation paid the highest possible price. There's no higher price. We have given all our money – everything we have financially. But most importantly, we gave [the life] of our nation said the president of Ukraine.
Nothing to show
The leader, Scott Pelley, asked Zelenski if this would be willing to invitation Donald Trump and his administration to Ukraine.
We want you to come and see. You think you realize what's going on here. Okay, we respect your position. You understand. But please, before any decision, any form of negotiation, come see people, civilians, soldiers, hospitals, churches, children injured or killed. Come, let's see, and then let's start planning on how to end the war. – he replied.
Zelenski assured that the Ukrainians would not prepare anything for the show, leaving Trump free to choose places he would like to visit. He stressed that the United States had provided $175 billion in support to Ukraine, of which a crucial part was allocated to the acquisition of American weapons. The fight for Ukraine was called a joint effort to defend Europe as a whole.
I can only thank the people of the United States of America for their support, their strong support. But people dying now, with all due respect to the US and Europe, these dying now are Ukrainians. That's why I'm saying we defend another countries by giving us weapons. said Zelenski.
Righteous Peace
When asked about Trump’s statement, he called it dictator and suggested that Kiev started the conflict, Zelenski regretted that in the United States communicative according to the Russian point of view is increasingly dominant.
Zelenski besides addressed the question of how he should look fair peace.
Don't lose our sovereignty or our independence. We, no substance what, will recover what ours, due to the fact that we have never lost it – the Russians have taken it from us, temporarily occupied territories [...] What we can't reconstruct is human life. There's only 1 thing you can do, justice. We can't let justice go. Those who killed must pay for the murders – he replied.
