On March 2, Volodymyr Zelensky stated that the end of the war with Russia is «very, very far away», emphasizing that the future peace must be fair, honest, and, most importantly, sustainable, reported Associated Press.
Donald Trump criticized this statement.
«This is the worst statement Zelensky could make, and America will no longer tolerate it! This is what I said: this guy doesn't want peace while he has American support. And Europe, at the meeting they held with Zelensky, directly stated that they cannot do this job without the USA — probably not a very good statement made in terms of showing strength against Russia. What are they thinking? — wrote Trump on the social network Truth social.
Earlier, Zelensky stated that he is ready to meet with Donald Trump again if the US President invites him. However, he noted that he would come only in case of a «constructive dialogue, to solve real problems, for serious questions and real, decisive actions and answers», writes Bloomberg.
Donald Trump also mentioned the possibility of continuing negotiations when Zelensky «wants peace».
