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.

      Because that’s literally what happened when Putin annexed Crimea. The west let him keep the territory he stole as a concession and then he just invaded again a few years later.

      Holy shit, do you people have the memory of a goldfish? First it’s “Zelenskyy started the war” and now this… Embarrassing that you’re this ignorant about what’s going on in the world.

        Whoa there. I was just looking for a source for the information. That doesn’t mean Putin good or Russia didn’t invade. If that’s an opinion though. Nothing from Putin’s military invasions indicates he would go into Europe.
