Thank you America, thank you for your support, thank you for this visit. Thank you @POTUS, Congress, and the American people. Ukraine needs just and lasting peace, and we are working exactly for that.
— Volodymyr Zelenskyy / Володимир Зеленський (@ZelenskyyUa) February 28, 2025“We had a very significant meeting at the White House today,” Trump said. “Under pressure and in these circumstances, you learn things you wouldn’t otherwise. Emotions reveal a lot, and I have concluded that President Zelensky is not ready for peace if America is involved—he sees our participation as a major advantage in negotiations.”
