A word war between its president is underway UkraineVolodimir Zelenski and the President of the United States, Donald Trump.

For the Ukrainian president, his American counterpart lives in “a bullet of misinformation”, while for Donald Trump, Volodimir Zelenski is but a “dictator without elections”.

As long as Joe Biden remained president of the United States, Kiev and Washington was a punch. But today things are completely different. For Donald Trump, Ukraine has received enough help from the United States, without taking anything back in return. Indeed, the US president’s attempt to access Ukraine’s rare lands was rejected by Volodimir Zelenski, as he said the Ukrainian president was not offered in return for security guarantees to end the war.

“I would like more honesty on Trump,” Ukraine’s president emphasized, publicly publicly expressing his criticism of the US president to date. THE Volodimir Zelenski He accused Donald Trump of helping Putin to get out of diplomatic isolation, referring to a misinformation web in which it has… caught The President of the United States.

A few hours earlier, Donald Trump, having adopted Moscow’s rhetoric, had again accused Kiev of starting the war, adding that if the Ukrainian president wants a position in the negotiations, he would have to hold elections first.

A few hours later and after the Zelenski outburst, the President of the United States with 230 words attacked the Ukrainian counterpart, reaching the point of calling him a “dictator” and clarifying that the US is negotiating the end of war with Russia.

As Donald Trump emphasized, the Ukrainian president, “a moderately successful comedian (…) who the only thing he was good was to manipulate Biden” like a violin “. “Better,” he said “move quickly,” the US president threatened otherwise, “there is no country left.”

Not even Europe escaped from the Trump arrows, which, as he pointed out, “failed to bring peace”.

For Donald Trump, the European allies of the United States “have contributed much less to Ukraine’s defense” despite the fact that “war is much more important to Europe than for us, we have a big, beautiful ocean to us It separates. “

It is striking, writes the British BBC, how much rhetoric Trump for Ukraine now agrees with Russia’s rhetoric and how different it remains from what Europe, NATO and Ukraine itself adopted.

Initially US officials stressed that Ukraine should forget about NATO’s accession or take back its occupied territories. Now, Donald Trump accuses Kiev of began the war and questioning Volodimir Zelenski’s legitimacy, arguing that his presidential term has expired.

Moscow can only be happy. It was also evident in statements by Russian diplomat leader Sergei Lavrov, who referred to Trump’s statements on election in Ukraine, stressed that “no leader of the West has said that and Trump repeats that” That he understands our positions. “

For weeks, Donald Trump has made it clear that he wants the war in Ukraine to end as soon as possible. After all, he was one of his main pre -election promises, even if that means that Kiev should say goodbye to territories that the Russian Armed Forces have understood.

Trump statements have worked Ukraine and Europe that see Washington’s attitude aligned with that of Moscow. For his part, Russian President Vladimir Putin, referring to the Hysteria of the Europeans, rushed to Donald Trump’s side, stressing that “I am surprised at the rest of the US president, in dealing with his allies in dealing with his allies. Honestly, a clumsy way. “

The Old Epirus continues to seek a role in developments.

Europeans’ constant request is Brussels and Kiev to participate in the negotiations to end the war in Ukraine.

They are seeking strong security guarantees with the participation of the United States and continue to disagree with the development of European troops in Ukrainian territory.

Hope Macron and Starmer, who are expected next week, will visit Washington to persuade Donald Trump to make their laughter. As the Swedish prime minister explains, the outcome of the War in Ukraine will shape European security for years or as the US president has pointed out at dawn Moscow keeps “papers in their hands”
