Summary

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy stated he is willing to resign if it ensures peace or NATO membership for Ukraine.

“If it is peace for Ukraine, and if you really want me to leave my post, I’m ready,” he said. “Alternatively, I can trade this for NATO membership… I’m focusing on Ukraine’s security today, not in 20 years.”

His comments come amid tensions with Donald Trump, who falsely suggested the Ukrainian president was responsible for starting the war.

Meanwhile, U.S.-Russia negotiations continue without Ukraine, which Zelenskyy firmly rejects. Zelenskyy emphasized the importance of Ukrainian involvement in any peace negotiations.

    Does this guy think he has all this importance? It is just a cannonball for the interests of the EU and the American Empire

    He will be discarded in the dustbin of history for having sacrificed his people in a conflict that could never have been won by Ukraine, all for money and self-pride

              Sorry that you’re too caught up in bootlicking to acknowledge historical facts. Maybe you’ll find asspats from your fellow fascists over your fellatio of an enemy of the Russian proletariat.

                  Oh cool, since you hate both, you obviously oppose the one who’s invading and performing genocide? Or is critical support only for orgs like Hamas?

                  “Being against Poland in the active, ongoing war of aggression and extermination does not make me pro-Nazi!”

                  lmao

      you’re the kind of person to roll over and let another country destroy everything you claim to stand for.

      you would die on your knees without a peep.

        And you’re the kind of person that doesn’t reason with his own head but feed on whatever government and media says. The same governments backing ukraine are backing israel in a genocide, they don’t give a shit about ukrainian people the same way they don’t care about children dying in gaza. Politicians only care about wealth and power, they don’t fight their own wars. The war in ukraine is being fought by poor people slaughtering each others over invisible lines on a map.

          Thats entirely beside the point.

          You in your own country. your own family. youd just roll over for an invader?

          thats what youre advocating. Immediate surrender and destruction.

            State propaganda makes you believe that not having an authoritarian ruler equals to surrender and destruction. People actually are capable of defending themself better without rulers forcing them to fight.

            Human rights should never be abolished, there are no conditions under which slavery is fine.

              ??? are you responding to an entirely different comment than mine, by mistake?

              What do you think rolling over for an invader would do? bring you more freedom?

      Yeah, you really got this wrong. Ukraine is a proxy for the war spilling into the rest of Europe. Russia has also annexed parts of Georgia in addition to Ukraine, and Putin has expressed the desire to reunite the old empire boundaries, not even USSR, the Russian empire from way back.

        It is FACT, aknowledged by the OPCW that it was Georgia who started the war and killed Russian peace keeping troops.
        So you’re lying.
        As always it is NATO expansion and meddling that caused both conflicts.

          Are you for really saying Russia marching 100,000 troops onto the border of Ukraine and then invading is somehow Ukraines fault?

          Also, the annexation of parts of Georgia by Russia is Georgia’s fault? How exactly do you come to these conclusions, they are so backwards it’s insane.

      You’re 100% right.
      OC not appreciated by the regime fanboys
      TBF he got elected on the promise of ending the war (most of them here downvoting you have never heard of before) in the east they started against the ethnic Russians who wanted independence from the US installedcoup regime.
      And he did try, OC the fanatic Azov fascists wouldn’t hear of it and laughed in his face (on video).
      It was more easy since the Russians hadn’t stepped in yet.
