Zelensky says Ukraine war could end faster with Trump as president
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky stated that the war in Ukraine could end faster with Donald Trump as U.S. president. He made these comments after congratulating Trump on his election victory, expressing hope for a diplomatic resolution by 2025. Trump's plan includes establishing a demilitarized zone and a 20-year agreement for Ukraine not to join NATO, while the U.S. would continue to supply arms. However, Trump’s team clarified that U.S. troops would not be sent to enforce peace. Russian President Vladimir Putin congratulated Trump and expressed readiness for talks. However, analysts suggest that Russia's demands remain unchanged, and peace negotiations may not progress until Western military support for Ukraine ceases.
