Putin chooses war over peace
The presidential message was released after Trump held a meeting with the President of Ukraine, Volodymyr Zelensky, during the United Nations General Assembly event held in New York. After meeting with his Ukrainian counterpart, the Republican leader spoke with French President Emmanuel Macron.
In that meeting, Trump stated that he hopes Ukraine "regains its land" and was candid about his efforts to end the war. "I thought it would be easier because of my relationship with Putin, but unfortunately, that relationship meant nothing," the magnate acknowledged.
Since returning to the White House, Trump set a goal to achieve peace in Ukraine and even received in Alaska a Russian delegation led by Putin last August. Meanwhile, the Kremlin leader has shown little interest in a ceasefire, intensifying his attacks on Kyiv with hundreds of drones and missiles.
"If we fully support Ukraine, considering that the Russian economy is suffering, there is that possibility of a good future," Macron emphasized in his meeting with Trump, in a stance that Washington now seems to share with European leaders.
