Donald Trump has made more than clear his position before the War in Ukraine. About to turn three years of a conflict that Russia began by invading the neighboring country, the president of the United States has blamed his Ukrainian counterpart, Volodimir Zelenski, to begin the war and has justified the exclusion of Kyiv from the peace negotiations. “You should never have started ityou could have reached an agreement, “the Republican president reproached.
Trump responded to Ukraine discomfort by its exclusion of the negotiating table about its own future, whose results Zelenski has already warned that he will not accept. His statements came precisely after high -level Between Washington and Moscow on Tuesday in Riad, in which both parties agreed to open a negotiating process for peace, but Russia demanded to veto the entry of Ukraine into NATO.
Asked about a press conference from his Mar-A-Lago residence, in Florida, Trump said he is “disappointed.” “I am very disappointed. I hear that [los ucranianos] They are upset about not having a seat [en la mesa de negociación]well They have had a seat for three years And a long time before that, “he said.
“This could have been very easily arranged, a half -cooked negotiator could have arranged this years ago without the loss of a lot of land, of very little territory, without the loss of any life and without the loss of cities,” the president insisted US. “They care about not having a seat, someone who I should have reached an agreement a long time agoyou could have reached an agreement, “he said.
“I think I have the power to end this war and I think it is going very well,” said Trump, who, immediately, has lashed out against Kyiv: “Today I listen ‘we have not been invited,’ Well, you’ve been there for three years, you should have put an end to him in three years. You should never have started it, you could have reached an agreement, “he insisted.
According to Trump, he “could have reached an agreement for Ukraine that would have given them almost their entire land, and nobody would have died and no city would have been destroyed and no dome would have demolished, but they decided not to do so.” Incidentally, he has loaded against his predecessor, the Democrat Joe Bidenasserting that he had no “idea” and that his management of this matter was “pathetic.”
Trump questions Zelenski’s legitimacy
About Zelenski, Trump has said that he personally like him, but he has apostilled: “I don’t care about the personal, I care about work. You have a leadership that has allowed a war that should never have occurred“He has recriminated.
In addition, he has emphasized that there have been no elections in Ukraine and that the country remains under martial law. “The leader of Ukraine, I hate to say it, but has dropped to 4% approval,” he said, although this data does not correspond to The figures you handle The Kyiv International Institute of Sociology, which places confidence in the Ukrainian President in 52%. “If you want a seat on the table, should the people of Ukraine say” we have not had elections “?” Trump has slide.
During that same press conference, the American president has also stated that, after that first contact in Saudi Arabia, he trusts much more that there is a peace agreement that ends the “barbarism” in Ukraine. The Republican, who has affirmed that no one has asked him They have already opened to this possibility.
A negotiation without Ukraine or Europe
Trump thus approaches more and more Vladimir Putinwhile Ukraine sees with fear a negotiation about his future that is not taking into account. Zelenski, who planned to go to Saudi Arabia this Wednesday, has decided to postpone his visit so as not to coincide with contacts between Russia and the United States. “Decisions without Ukraine cannot be made on how to finish war in Ukraine“He insisted on Tuesday.
Neither Europe It has been included, for the moment, in those peace talks, although the US Secretary of State has affirmed that It will end, although it asks for “concessions.” At the moment, the French president, Emmanuel Macron, has summoned a New Summit in Paris With European and non -European leaders to find an answer for Ukraine.
