Ukrainian president invited Trump to Ukraine but says if he returns to White House he could make unilateral concessions to Russia

The Ukrainian president, Volodymyr Zelenskiy, fears that if Donald Trump returns to the White House next year he could make unilateral concessions to Russia that override Ukraine’s interests and branded the former US president’s claims he could stop the war in 24 hours as “very dangerous”.

In an interview with the UK’s Channel 4 News, Zelenskiy said he was “stressed” that the former president “is going to make decisions on his own, without … I’m not even talking about Russia, but without both sides, without us.”

“If he says this publicly, that’s a little scary. I’ve seen a lot, a lot of victims, but that’s really making me a bit stressed,” he said.

“Even if his idea [for ending the war] – that no one has heard yet – doesn’t work for us, for our people, he will do anything to implement his idea anyway. And this worries me a little,” he added.

    Almost all countries are corrupt, the US included. Can you add something of substance to your post instead of what you actually wrote?

      So, that’s your reply? Since all countries are corrupt, even the US, we should NOT limit, or even QUESTION where the money is going? Spoken like a true Democrat.

        I am not American.

        Where did I say we shouldn’t question things?

        My point is that you are arguing against something which wasn’t brought up in the first place, like shouting at a cloud.

        To address what you did say: who is stopping you from questioning anything? You’re doing it here. You have freedom of speech.

        By what metric are you measuring that Ukraine is one of the most corrupt countries, and how does that mean they are deserving of being bombed/invaded?

        The US is one of the most corrupt countries in the world, so what is the relevance of your comment? I could bring up corruption such as Saudi Arabia giving Jared Kushner $2bn; I wonder what favours were given from the previous government to secure that. Does that mean we can now bomb the US?
