Zelnski: If we are not part of the US -Russian agreement, we will not accept it

In an ierview with US media, Ukrainian Preside Walodimir Zelnsky described views of the Ukrainian war in collaboration with Washington, saying he would not agree to any agreeme that the US and Russia would sign without Ukraine.

Zelksky told NBC News that no decision between Washington and Moscow on Ukraine would accept, “This is a war in Ukraine and against us; We also give us human casualties. “

The Ukrainian preside also called for European allies to join the negotiating table in a stateme about the possibility of negotiations between Ukraine and Russia and warned of the consequences of US withdrawal from NATO and Russia’s absence.

Referring to the alleged information that Ukraine had obtained about the curre military maneuvers of the Russian army in Belarus, he warned that a wider attack on Russia on other parts of Europe may be likely to be carried out in the coming summer.

Zelnsky said that Russia “has failed to occupy Ukraine”, said Moscow’s next step is unclear and there is a danger that the next goal of Preside Vladimir Putin is Poland or Lithuania. “We believe Putin will start the war against NATO,” he said.

In an ierview in Munich on Friday, he repeated his warnings during a meeting with the US Vice Preside, saying that NATO members were not capable of defending themselves in the absence of the United States. To be, this military coalition will collapse.

Zelnski also claimed that if the United States was not a military threat, Russia would occupy parts of Europe, especially former Soviet couries.

“They (Russia) will start from the small couries previously in the Soviet Union; “But Europe will not respond because they (Europe) will not be able to defend.”

The scrambled to maiain America’s loyalty

Zelksky’s remarks come as the Trump administration set its goals for peace talks between Ukraine and Russia this week, and Trump said on Wednesday that Putin had a phone call.

“As we have agreed, we wa to end the millions of deaths from the Russian -Ukraine war,” Trump wrote on his social media network, Truth Social. We agreed to strive for close cooperation, including to travel to each other. “We also agreed that our teams will start the negotiations immediately.”

In an ierview with NBC Channel, Zelksky thanked Trump and other US leaders for supporting Ukraine, but added that “no leadership in the world can make an agreeme with Putin without us.”

However, Zelksky claimed that Trump’s policies had led to fear in the Kremlin and considered it a factor that could ultimately lead to fundameal peace talks between Moscow and Kiev.

Zelnsky claimed: “Putin has no desire to be peace; But I think he is a little scared of Trump. “Trump is powerful and I think he can lead Putin io peace talks.”

At the same time, Zelksky urged Trump to maiain his loyalty to Ukraine in his conversations with Putin and other Russian leaders. “I wa Ukraine to be a priority for Trump, not Russia … we are not as big as Russia, but I think strategically,” he said. “Ukraine is more importa to the United States, because we are really partners and we have common values.”

When he was asked in the ierview, Zelnsky was asked if he believed Trump had been in good faith in Ukraine, he was not very sure at first and said, “I hope it is,” but then changed his tone and said, “Yes, he said. And I have opened a lot on it. “

Referring to his failed experience in negotiating with Russia in 2008, he urged Trump not to trust the Russian preside and his remarks about the ceasefire.

The Ukrainian preside also called Putin “murderer and terrorist” in response to the question of what he would say to Putin in peace talks. However, Zelnski acknowledged that his coury alone could not remove Russia from Ukraine and said it would need Western support to achieve this goal.

Ukraine borders and peace talks

Zelksky also cited the US Preside and Secretary of State’s remarks that the return of all the areas that Russia has occupied for years has described as “an unrealistic expectation”. In an ierview with NBC, he said Ukraine’s law does not allow Russia to recognize Russian ownership of the occupied territories, but acknowledged that Kiev was ready to negotiate some of the occupied areas in exchange for NATO membership.

He also admitted that if these areas were to be returned to Ukraine, this goal should be achieved from the path of diplomacy, as Ukraine should prioritize the lives of its people.

However, the Ukrainian preside claimed that the coury could still win the war in a military manner. “Yes, we can, but we will give a lot of casualties and we don’t know how much these toll will be … On the other hand, I’m not sure that it is possible at this speed,” he said. “If our partners do not help, they will not support it, it will be difficult and long.”

He also spoke about the possible agreeme between the United States and Ukraine on the reserves of rare minerals in the coury, saying: “We have checked what the United States imports and what rare materials it needs for its industry, for example titanium. “We have seen that we have titanium reserves in Ukraine that are enough to meet the industry’s need for the next five years.”

The Trump administration has suggested that in exchange for US financial and military aid to Ukraine since year 2, it owned 5 % of its rare mineral resources to the United States; But Zelksky has explicitly stated that any agreeme on Ukraine’s mineral resources must be accompanied by security guaraees from the United States.

“Help us defend these resources and we will make money together,” the Ukrainian preside said. If the United States does not guaraee us security, this economic treaty will not work. Everything must be fair. “
