Zelensky harshly addressed Orban over Putin's call and thanked Trump.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky called for European unity and American resolve to achieve real peace, while simultaneously condemning the position of Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban.
We all hope that Viktor Orban will not at least call Assad in Moscow to listen to his lengthy lectures.
Zelensky emphasized the necessity of international cooperation to ensure stable peace: 'To achieve real peace and guaranteed security, America’s resolve, European unity, and the commitment of all partners to adhere to the goals and principles of the UN Charter is needed.'
The President of Ukraine warned about the dangers of individual political games and stressed the importance of collective action: 'We should not play for our image at the expense of unity – we need to care about joint success. Unity in Europe always brings success.'
Zelensky paid special attention to the issue of Ukraine's participation in negotiations regarding the war: 'Discussions about the war against Ukraine, waged by Russia, cannot take place without Ukraine.'
'I am grateful to President Trump and many leaders in Europe with whom we are already working together to find the right and sustainable solutions for real peace,' Zelensky concluded.
It should be noted that the Office of the President made statements about readiness for negotiations with the Russian Federation regarding the end of the war.
