Anger and frustration were expressed by Ukrainians on Saturday for the failure of Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin to agree even with a truce in Ukraine, but also with the image of the US president welcoming his Russian counterpart to Alaska.
As Reuters reports, Trump called Ukraine to conclude an agreement to end the war because ‘Russia is a very big force’. Trump also said that he agrees with Putin that the sides should focus on a comprehensive peace arrangement, not through a truce, as Kiev and his European allies – until now with the US support.
“He (Putin) won. Trump showed his attitude towards him, and at the same time towards us. This meeting was not finished well for Ukraine ‘, He typically stated a 26 -year -old soldier who gave only the call of the “joy”.
“… We have to end the war. We really have to sit on the negotiating table and talk, reach an agreement, because they die every day, injury fighters are injured. “
The “joy” was a godfather in a baptism in a church in Zaporizia, southeastern Ukraine, one of the four areas that Russia claims to have attached, though it does not fully control them.
‘Bombs will continue to fall on us’
“They (Putin and Trump) made some agreements for their states”Victor Tkats, a priest who performed the baptism, said. “And here in Ukraine, Zaporizia, in the area of Zaporizia, we will continue to suffer, the bombs will continue to fall on us.”
Some were outraged that Trump had invited Putin to the US and treated him with such respect, as equal to equal.
Putin has been ostracized Of the Western leaders since began the general invasion of Ukraine in February 2022 and is wanted by the International Criminal Court, accused of the war crime of displacement of hundreds of children from Ukraine, which he himself refuses.
“Literally yesterday, a ballistic rocket launched in Sumi. And this animal (p. Putin) flies to Alaska Where the world applauds him and the red carpet is set in front of him, ”, noted Hannah Kucerenco, a 25 -year -old model, in Kyiv. “How is this possible now?”
A “teasing” image of Trump and Putin exchanging handshakes on the airway with a background bombing apartment buildings in Ukraine was widely released on the internet.
“I don’t even know what Trump thinks. I have the impression that he is exactly the same (with Putin) »said the pensioner from Kiev, Tatiana Vorobi. “They are identical.”
