To defend their territories to ask to sit at the negotiating table: the obligatory change of discourse of Zelenski

The Russian invasion of Ukraine in 2022 forced Volodimir Zelenski to change the presidential suit for military clothing. When the Russian troops entered Kyiv he stayed and encouraged his army.

During the first months his speech was the same: Donbás and Crimea are Ukrainians. “Those who say that we are going to give Crimea, tell them that It is our territory“He said on more than one occasion.

Everything seemed good until 2023. Then, Russia managed to stop the counteroffensive and began to win territories, with cities as important as Bajmut or Avdivka. It was then that Zelenski began to ask for more help.

But with the passing of the months, Kyiv has been losing territories. In addition, with the arrival of Trump to the presidency they have also lost their main ally: United States.

“They can make a deal or may not make a deal. They can be Russia or may not be,” Trump said this week. This has forced Zelenski to change speech and even ask for a European army to be believed.

“If we have no strength to recover our territories today, the West must force Putin to sit at the table,” said Ukrainian President. Now, to end this diplomatically conflict, it would be formed with at least sitting at the table so that Ukraine does not disappear from the map.
