I was asked this week if I see Ukraine as an equal member in the peace process, and I didn't say "yes." However, Ukraine will have a seat at the table. I will never accept any decisions between the United States and Russia about Ukraine without Ukraine present. This is our war, and these are our human losses. We are thankful for all the support and unity from the USA, including bipartisan support. However, no leader in the world can make a deal with Putin about Ukraine without Ukraine being involved.

Speaker 0: So, again, mister president, I'd like to thank you very much. And we'll speak to you very soon and probably see you again very soon. Thank you very much, Vladimir. And next time in Moscow. Oh, that's an interesting one. I don't know. I'll get a little heat on that one, but I I could see it possibly happening. Thank you very much, Vladimir. And thank you all. Thank you.

I believe you will win. We will provide everything you need to succeed. Our success is not due to equipment, but your courage. Thank you. The world is watching because we cannot let Vladimir Putin succeed here, as it would set a precedent for other countries.

I want to say that you are the ally I've been hoping for my entire life. Not one American has died defending Ukraine. You've taken our weapons and you've been very effective, and I'm grateful to have you as our ally. However, I don't know if we can ever do business with Zelensky again. The way he handled the meeting and confronted the president was over the top. The relationship between Ukraine and America is vitally important, but I'm uncertain if Zelensky can make a deal with the United States after his recent behavior.

It's an honor to have President Zelenskyy of Ukraine here. We've been working closely together for a long time, and we've negotiated a fair deal that will benefit both our countries and the world. I've also had good discussions with President Putin, and we're trying to bring the conflict in Ukraine to a close. Too many soldiers are dying, and we want to see the money used for rebuilding instead. The previous administration didn't engage with Russia, but I believe if I were president, this war would have never happened. We're providing great equipment to Ukraine, and their soldiers have been incredibly brave. We're going to sign an agreement soon, and I think we're close to a deal to stop the shooting. It's an exciting moment, and I appreciate everyone being here.

In 2022, during the last contact with the previous administration, I tried to convince my former American colleague that the situation should not be brought to the point of no return regarding hostilities, and to accept it back then. That's a big mistake. Today, Trump says that if he was the president back then, there would be no war, and I am quite sure that it would indeed be so. I can confirm that. I believe that me and President Trump have built a very good, business-like and trustworthy contact, and I have every reason to believe that moving down this path, we can reach the end of the conflict sooner.

I found it interesting that Putin didn't criticize Joe Biden or NATO during our conversation. As an American, it would feel strange to badmouth the American president to a foreign leader, even if I have doubts about Biden's presidency. It just doesn't sit right with me. Maybe I'm just old-fashioned.

I signed deals with leaders like Macron and Merkel, including ceasefire agreements and gas contracts, but these were broken, and prisoner exchanges didn't happen. What kind of diplomacy are we even talking about here? With all due respect, it's disrespectful to come here and attack the administration that is trying to prevent the destruction of my country. Everyone has problems during war, but you'll feel it in the future. We've been alone since the beginning, but we are thankful for the help. You gave us military equipment; without it, the war would've been over quickly. I've said thank you many times, and we want to stop the war, but you need to ask our people about a ceasefire. Obama gave us sheets; you gave us javelins. Be more thankful; without you, we don't have any cards.

It's an honor to have President Zelenskyy. We've been working closely together for a long time and have a very fair deal. We're committed to working with Ukraine, and we've had good discussions with Russia. We want to stop the killing and rebuild. The Biden administration didn't speak to Russia, but if I were president, this war would have never happened. Your soldiers have been unbelievably brave, and we've given them great equipment. I give tremendous credit to your generals, soldiers, and yourself. We want to get this over with. We're going to sign the agreement soon and discuss other things. The exciting moment is when the shooting stops and we have a deal, and I think we're fairly close.

We planted the US flag to show support for the people enduring hardships. We must end this destruction, support Russia, fulfill goals, and help those affected. I feel proud to stand with amazing people who do so much to assist others. The devastation here is unlike anything I've seen, even in Afghanistan. The work being done is incredible, and we must aid these individuals.

I'm very proud of President Trump and was also very proud of JD Vance for standing up for our country. We want to be helpful, but what I witnessed in the Oval Office was disrespectful. I'm unsure if we can ever conduct business with Zelensky again after that.

And I can tell you, and I I hope that he will also hear this, that strange though it may seem, but throughout these days, both during informal and formal talks, there was not one case when anyone voiced a negative opinion about the current US administration, not once during these four days. All of all the people that I talked to supported the meeting that we had in Anchorage, and they all expressed hope that the position held by president Trump and the position held by Russia and all the other parties will lead to an end of this conflict. So that is something that I'm saying without any kind of irony. And since I'm saying this publicly and everyone in the world will hear this, It is a direct it is a direct confirmation of the fact that it's true because all of those people will hear me.

They were ready to end the war if we take on the neutrality of Finland and promise not to join NATO. Boris Johnson came to Kyiv and said we won't sign anything with them, let's just fight. But as soon as we called on them to sit down, the next day they were already waiting with a delegation.

Russia occupied parts of Ukraine starting in 2014, and despite conversations and agreements, nothing stopped them. We signed ceasefire deals with Macron and Merkel, but Russia broke them, killing our people and not exchanging prisoners. I question what kind of diplomacy is being discussed when our country faces destruction. Everyone faces problems during war, but it seems like some don't fully grasp the situation. From the beginning, we've been strong and thankful, even when alone. However, we are told that we're not winning and should be more appreciative of the aid we've received. We want to stop the war, and if a ceasefire could be reached with guarantees, it would save lives.

I want to express my gratitude to the Russian government and people for welcoming me. This opportunity is vital for my family's safety and future. I feel honored to be here and see this as a new beginning, akin to a marriage with Russia. I look forward to building a life here. I also want to thank President Putin for making Russia a supportive environment for families in today's world.

I see the hatred for Putin, making a deal tough. I want peace and am aligned with the world. I can be tough, but deals require more than that. Previous chest-thumping didn't work, diplomacy is needed. Trump's engaging in diplomacy. Russia occupied parts of Ukraine, nobody stopped them. Ceasefires were signed but broken, prisoners weren't exchanged. What kind of diplomacy are we even talking about? I'm trying to end the destruction of your country, but don't come here and start a fight. You're forcing conscripts to the front lines. Be thankful I'm trying to resolve this conflict. You should be appreciating the country that's backing you far more than a lot of people said they should have, and has given you billions of dollars in military equipment. Be thankful. You don't have the cards. If we get a ceasefire, you'd want to take it.

We planted the US flag in support of the people enduring hardships here. We must end this destruction and help rebuild. It's crucial to support Russia, achieve our goals, and stop the devastation. I'm proud to stand with incredible people making a difference. The situation here is unlike anything I've seen, even in Afghanistan. The work being done is remarkable, and we must assist these individuals.

I see the hatred for Putin, which makes a deal tough. I want to get this settled and align with Europe. I could be tougher, but that won't get a deal done. We had a president who talked tough, but Putin still invaded. Diplomacy is the path to peace. Putin occupied parts of Ukraine in 2014, and nobody stopped him. We signed ceasefire and gas contracts, but he broke them, killing our people and not exchanging prisoners. What kind of diplomacy are we talking about? It's disrespectful to litigate this here. You should be thanking me for trying to bring this to a conference.

President Putin wants to see that as much as I do. So, again, mister president, I'd like to thank you very much, and we'll speak to you very soon and probably see you again very soon. Thank you very much, Vladimir. And next time in Moscow. Oh, that's an interesting one. I don't know. I'll get a little heat on that one, but I, I could see it possibly happening. Thank you very much, Vladimir. And thank you all. Thank

We are now free, while the Russians are suffering. It was worth every penny. Thank you.

I've been in countless bilateral meetings with heads of state, but I've never witnessed behavior like President Zelensky's. He berated and interrupted his host instead of showing gratitude for the U.S.'s significant aid, which has essentially kept him alive and in power. This was very disappointing to see. I sincerely hope President Zelensky reconsiders his approach, reaches out to President Trump, expresses the gratitude he owes, apologizes for his recent behavior, and agrees to this mutual rights deal. It's the best path to peace in the region and serves the interests of both our countries.

Your fight for your homeland is admirable, and it is our fight too. In 2017, we will advocate strongly against Russian aggression in Washington. It’s time for Russia to face consequences, but our conflict is with Putin, not the Russian people. We promise to amplify your bravery and make your case known globally. I believe in your victory and will do everything possible to support you. Your courage, not just equipment, has driven our success. The world is watching because we cannot allow Putin to prevail here; his success would embolden him in other nations.

I'm aligned with the US and the world, and I want to end this conflict. It's hard to make a deal with so much hatred. I could be tough, but that won't get us anywhere. For four years, tough talk didn't stop Putin. Diplomacy is the path to peace. Others didn't stop Putin from occupying parts of Ukraine since 2014. We signed ceasefire and gas contracts, but he broke them, killing people and not exchanging prisoners. I am trying to end the destruction of your country. Everyone has problems during war, even you. You've allowed yourself to be in a bad position. You're gambling with lives and World War III, and that's disrespectful to the US. You haven't said thank you, and campaigned against us. Your country is in trouble and not winning. If we are out, you will be fighting on your own.

I'm thankful for the continued support from the American people, President Trump, and Congress during this full-scale invasion. We are strategic partners, and I respect President Trump's desire to end the war, which we want even more. We need to be on the same side to stop Putin, pressuring him alongside Europe. Peace isn't just the absence of war; it's about justice and human rights. I respect President Trump and the American people, and I'm open to discussing sensitive matters outside the media. Signing the minerals deal is a first step to security guarantees, but it's not enough. We need to show our people that America stands with us, not Russia. I want to find a way to peace through diplomacy with the United States, Europe, and Russia at the table.

They were ready to end the war if we took a neutral stance like Finland and promised not to join NATO. When we returned to Istanbul, Boris Johnson came to Kyiv and said we wouldn't sign anything with them and let's just fight. But as soon as we called on them to sit down, the next day they would already be sitting, waiting with a delegation.
