We’re very grateful to the USA for all of the assist. I’m grateful to President Trump, Congress for his or her bipartisan assist, and American folks. Ukrainians have all the time appreciated this assist, particularly throughout these three years of full-scale invasion.
America’s assist has been important in serving to us survive, and I need to acknowledge that. Regardless of the powerful dialogue, we stay strategic companions. However we must be trustworthy and direct with one another to really perceive our shared targets.
It’s essential for us to have President Trump’s assist. He desires to finish the conflict, however nobody desires peace greater than we do. We’re those dwelling this conflict in Ukraine. It’s a combat for our freedom, for our very survival.
As President Reagan as soon as stated, “Peace is not only the absence of conflict.” We’re speaking about simply and lasting peace—freedom, justice, and human rights for everybody. A ceasefire received’t work with Putin. He has damaged ceasefires 25 occasions during the last ten years. An actual peace is the one resolution.
We’re able to signal the minerals settlement, and will probably be step one towards safety ensures. Nevertheless it’s not sufficient, and we’d like extra than simply that. A ceasefire with out safety ensures is harmful for Ukraine. We’ve been combating for 3 years, and Ukrainian folks must know that America is on our facet.
I can’t change Ukraine’s place on Russia. The Russians are killing us. Russia is the enemy, and that’s the fact we face. Ukraine desires peace, however it should be a simply and lasting peace. For that, we must be sturdy on the negotiation desk. Peace can solely come after we know we’ve got safety ensures, when our military is powerful, and our companions are with us.
We wish peace. That’s why I got here to the USA, and visited President Trump. The deal on minerals is only a first step towards safety ensures and getting nearer to peace. Our state of affairs is hard, however we are able to’t simply cease combating and never having ensures that Putin is not going to return tomorrow.
Will probably be troublesome with out the U.S. assist. However we are able to’t lose our will, our freedom, or our folks. We’ve seen how Russians got here to our properties and killed many individuals. No one desires one other wave of occupation. If we can’t be accepted to NATO, we’d like some clear construction of safety ensures from our allies within the U.S.
Europe is prepared for contingencies and to assist fund our giant military. We additionally want the U.S. function in defining safety ensures—what variety, what quantity, and when. As soon as these ensures are in place, we are able to discuss with Russia, Europe, and the U.S. about diplomacy. Struggle alone is just too lengthy, and we don’t have sufficient weapons to push them out solely.
When somebody talks about losses, each single life issues. Russia invaded our properties, killed our folks, and tried to erase us. This isn’t nearly territories or numbers—it’s about actual lives. That’s what we’d like everybody to grasp.
I would like the U.S. to face extra firmly on our facet. This isn’t only a conflict between our two nations; Russia introduced this conflict onto our territory and into our properties. They’re mistaken as a result of they disrespected our territorial integrity.
All Ukrainians need to hear a robust U.S. place on our facet. It’s comprehensible the U.S. would possibly search for dialogue with Putin. However the U.S. has all the time spoken about ‘peace via energy.’ And collectively we are able to take sturdy steps in opposition to Putin.
Our relationship with the American President is extra than simply two leaders; it’s a historic and strong bond between our peoples. That’s why I all the time start with phrases of gratitude from our nation to the American nation.
American folks helped save our folks. People and human rights come first. We’re actually grateful. We wish solely sturdy relations with America, and I actually hope we may have them.
