Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky believes Donald Trump's potential presidency could be crucial in bringing an end to the war with Russia. Zelensky also emphasizes the need to stabilize the front lines in the coming months.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said on Thursday that U.S. President-elect Donald Trump could be decisive in the outcome of the 34-month-old war with Russia and help stop Kremlin leader Vladimir Putin. Zelensky also said a priority was to stabilize the front line early in the new year. Putin, he said, feared negotiations as they would be tantamount to a defeat for Russia . “ Trump can be decisive.

Zelensky said he wanted to ensure that any U.S. plan on a settlement took account of Ukraine’s views. “It cannot be otherwise.
