How have Russia and Ukraine reacted to Trump’s comments on Ukraine win?
Russia issued a statement hitting back at U.S President Donald Trump suggestion that Ukraine could win. Russia's spokesperson Dmitry Peskov said that Russia would continue to pursue its war 👇
“We are doing this for both the present and the future of our country. For many generations to come. Therefore, we have no alternative. As far as we understand, President Trump’s statements were made after communicating with Zelensky and, apparently, under the influence of a vision set out by Zelensky. This vision contrasts sharply with our understanding of the current state of affairs. The fact that Ukraine is being encouraged in every possible way to continue hostilities and the argument that Ukraine can win something back is, in our view, a mistaken argument. The dynamics on the front lines speak for themselves.”
Zelenskyy - “I am grateful to President Trump for strong cooperation with the United States. Mr President clearly understands the situation and is well-informed about all aspects of this war. We highly value his resolve to help end this war.”
