It is “crucial” for Ukraine to have the support of US President Donald Trump, Ukraine President Volodimir Zelenski said on Saturday the day after his shipwreck with US President Donald Trump.

“It is crucial for us to have the support of President Trump,” Zelenski said in a series of posts on the X platform on Saturday morning. “He wants the war to end, but no one wants peace more than us,” he added, however, trying to throw the tones.

Zelenski has emphasized his gratitude for US support in Ukraine in the three years since Russia invaded his country.

“We are very grateful to the United States for the whole support. I am grateful to President Trump, Congress for their bipartisan support and the American people. The Ukrainians have always appreciated this support, especially during these three years of complete invasion, “Zelenski reiterated in his social media posts.

The Ukrainian leader stressed that, despite Friday’s conflict, Ukraine and the US “remain strategic partners. But we have to be honest and immediate to us to truly understand our common goals, “according to CNN.

He said Ukraine was ready to sign the mineral agreement for which he had traveled to the US, but noted that “not enough”.

“We need more than that. A ceasefire without security guarantees is dangerous to Ukraine. We have been fighting for three years and the Ukrainian people must know that America is on our side, “Zelenski said.

“The Americans helped to save our people. Man and human rights precede. We are really grateful. We only want strong relationships with America and I hope we really have them, “he added.

Second barrage of attacks by the US government against Zelenski

At the same time, after an episode of the Oval Office, the US leadership also launched a second barrage of attacks on the Ukrainian president.

“He wants to fight … We want to put an end to death …. He plays with very weak papers and does not want to make peace, “said US President Donald Trump.

Asked by a journalist about what Zelenski should do to start talks again, the US president stressed:
“He has to say, I want to make peace. He doesn’t have to stand there and say about Putin, Putin, all the negatives. We are not going to continue to fight. “

For his part, US US Secretary of State Marco Rubio said: “To apologize for the fact that he turned this situation into a fiasco for him. Do not come here and create a scenario where you will preach us diplomacy lessons will not work. “

The US Senator Lindsay Graham spoke of “complete, absolute disaster”, noting that “Either he has to give up and send someone we can work with.”
