I met with Putin before or after becoming president, and we discussed NATO potentially fracturing. He seemed excited about the idea of causing problems for NATO.

Трамп не понимает природу украинского кризиса и не знает русской истории. Его взгляд на события после развала Советского Союза слишком упрощённый. Он считает, что может быстро закончить войну, но это невозможно. Первые переговоры между Путиным и Трампом будут критически важны, чтобы донести, что мы не прекратим военные действия без освобождения Украины от нацистского режима и полной демилитаризации. Это не просто лозунги, а наши жизненные интересы. Некоторые сторонники Трампа понимают нашу позицию и склонны поддерживать её, но есть и те, кто заинтересован в продолжении войны. Ситуация сложная, и не стоит надеяться на быстрое разрешение конфликта. --- Trump does not understand the nature of the Ukrainian crisis and lacks knowledge of Russian history. His view of events after the Soviet Union's collapse is overly simplistic. He believes he can quickly end the war, but this is impossible. Initial negotiations between Putin and Trump will be crucial to convey that we will not cease military actions without liberating Ukraine from the Nazi regime and complete demilitarization. These are not just slogans, but our vital interests. Some of Trump's supporters understand our position and are inclined to support it, but others benefit from the continuation of the war. The situation is complex, and one should not expect a quick resolution to the conflict.

I'm aligned with the United States and the world, and I want to end the conflict in Ukraine. It's hard to make a deal with so much hatred, but I'm focused on getting things done for the sake of the world and Europe. I can be tough, but that won't lead to a deal. We tried being tough with Putin, and it didn't work. Diplomacy is the path to peace and prosperity. During past administrations, nobody stopped Putin when he occupied parts of Ukraine and people died. We signed ceasefire and gas contracts, but he broke them. What kind of diplomacy are we talking about?

What if Russia breaks the ceasefire or peace talks? What do we do then? Okay, what if they broke it? I don't know. They broke it with Biden because they didn't respect him, or Obama. They respect me.

Okay, so what happens if Russia breaks the ceasefire or these talks? It's a valid question to ask. What if a bomb drops on your head right now? What if they broke the agreement? With Biden and Obama, they didn't respect them, but they respect me.

- "The the Zelensky factor is dead in America." - "We're not romantic about this war anymore." - "In fact, the the reality of the war is becoming more and more apparent to the Americans." - "Trump's core doesn't want a war with Russia." - "They don't want a nuclear war at all." - "He promised peace." - "He guaranteed peace." - "Twenty four hours." - "Now he didn't deliver on that." - "Later he said he was joking, but his base hasn't forgotten that promise." - "So don't worry about Congress." - "They don't elect the president." - "And they will fall in behind the president because if he can secure his base with a peace deal, he can ruin everybody in congress, especially a republican who goes against him." - "So Trump is very secure if he can secure his base."

I don't know how a trilateral summit with Presidents Zelensky and Putin would work, they don't like each other and the US should never have allowed this situation to happen. I've stopped many wars, even some nobody's heard about. Ukraine wants to stop this war more than anyone. Negotiations should be between Ukraine and Russia, not Russia and the US. The US helps us because we are defending the line. If we fall, Russia will target the Baltics and Poland, and eventually, American soldiers will have to fight. Many Ukrainian cities are still standing. People are working, and children are going to school, even if it's difficult. Ukraine is fighting and living, despite Putin's claims. He has lost many soldiers and hasn't destroyed us.

I can be tougher than anyone, but that's not how you make deals. We had a president who talked tough about Putin, but Putin still invaded Ukraine. Diplomacy is the path to peace and prosperity. America is a good country when it engages in diplomacy, like President Trump is doing. Putin occupied parts of Ukraine, including Crimea, back in 2014. Obama was president then, followed by Trump, then Biden, and now potentially Trump again. Nobody stopped Putin back then. People were dying on the contact line. I even signed a ceasefire deal with him in 2019, along with Macron and Merkel, but he broke it, killed our people, and didn't exchange prisoners.

Мене не збирав Євросоюз, і мені байдуже, що про мене думають в Англії чи США. Світ змінився, і США більше не контролюють інші країни. Вони стали агресором, перетворивши Україну на залежну від обіцянок і озброєння. ООН не змогла запобігти війнам в Іраку та Афганістані, а НАТО порушило свої мандати. Захід не сприйме жодних ідей, які не відповідають його інтересам. Франція, незважаючи на свої зусилля, все ще залежить від США. Я готовий залишити цю гру, поки інші залишаються в тіні. I was not gathered by the European Union, and I don't care what England or the U.S. thinks of me. The world has changed, and the U.S. no longer controls other countries. They have become an aggressor, turning Ukraine into a dependent on promises and arms. The UN failed to prevent wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, and NATO violated its mandates. The West will not accept any ideas that don't align with its interests. France, despite its efforts, remains dependent on the U.S. I am ready to leave this game while others remain in the shadows.

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.

Я не считаю это моим делом решать, кому присуждать Нобелевскую премию. Бывали случаи, когда комитет награждал людей, которые для мира ничего не сделали, и это подрывало авторитет премии. Человек мог казаться хорошим, а через месяц–два награда появлялась — за что? В итоге авторитет премии утрачен. Бог с ним, не мне судить, но достоин ли действующий президент США Нобелевской премии, я не знаю. Но он реально много делает, чтобы решить долговременные кризисы, включая кризис на Украине. Что-то удаётся, что-то нет. Возможно, ещё многое удастся достичь на основе договорённостей и обсуждений в Анкоридже; он точно старается и работает над достижением мира и разрешением сложных международных ситуаций. I don’t consider it my business to decide who should be awarded the Nobel Prize. There have been cases when the committee awarded the Peace Prize to people who did nothing for the world, and this undermined the prize’s authority. A person could seem good, but within a month or two the award appeared — for what? Ultimately, the prize’s authority is eroded. God bless it, not for me to judge, but whether the sitting U.S. president deserves the Nobel Prize, I don’t know. But he really does a lot to resolve long-standing crises, including the Ukraine crisis. Some things succeed, some don’t. Perhaps much more can be achieved through agreements and discussions in Anchorage; he definitely tries and works toward achieving peace and resolving complex international situations.

Я общался с несколькими президентами США. Политика не меняется из-за сильной власти бюрократии. Даже Обама не смог закрыть Гуантанамо из-за сложностей. Это важный вопрос, люди там без суда десятилетиями. Не все так просто, но я остаюсь оптимистом и верю в возможность договоров по ключевым вопросам. Translation: I have spoken with several US presidents. Politics does not change due to the strong power of bureaucracy. Even Obama could not close Guantanamo due to difficulties. This is an important issue, people have been there for decades without trial. Not everything is simple, but I remain optimistic and believe in the possibility of agreements on key issues.

It's tough to make a deal because of the hatred towards Putin. I want to align with the world and Europe to get this done. I can be tougher than anyone, but that won't get us a deal. For four years, we had a president who talked tough about Putin, and then Putin invaded Ukraine. Diplomacy is the path to peace. Putin occupied parts of Ukraine in 2014. From 2014 to 2022, people were dying, despite conversations and ceasefire agreements with Macron and Merkel. He broke the ceasefire and didn't exchange prisoners. What kind of diplomacy is that? You're gambling with World War Three and disrespecting this country. Have you said thank you once? We gave you $350 billion and military equipment. If you could get a ceasefire right now, take it. I gave you javelins while Obama gave you sheets.

I see the hatred for Putin, which makes a deal tough. I'm aligned with the world and want to end this. I can be tough, but deals don't happen that way. For four years, we had a president who talked tough, but then Putin invaded. Diplomacy is the path to peace. We need to engage in diplomacy like President Trump is doing. Russia occupied parts of Ukraine, and nobody stopped him. We signed ceasefire deals, but Russia broke them. What kind of diplomacy are we talking about? It's disrespectful to litigate this in the Oval Office. You have manpower problems. You should thank the president for trying to bring this to a conference. Don't tell us what we're going to feel; we're trying to solve a problem. You're gambling with World War III and disrespecting this country. Have you even said thank you? Your country is in big trouble.

I see the hatred for Putin, and it's tough to make a deal with that. I want to get this thing settled. I could be tougher than anyone, but you won't get a deal that way. We had a president who talked tough about Putin, but Putin still invaded. Diplomacy is the path to peace. Russia occupied parts of Ukraine in 2014, and nobody stopped him. We signed ceasefire and gas contracts, but he broke the ceasefire and didn't exchange prisoners. What kind of diplomacy are we talking about? I'm talking about ending the destruction of your country. It's disrespectful to litigate this here. You should be thanking us for trying to bring this to a conference.

For four years, the previous president talked tough about Putin, but Putin still invaded Ukraine. Diplomacy is the path to peace. In 2014, Russia occupied parts of Ukraine, and nobody stopped them. We signed ceasefire agreements, but Russia broke them, killing our people and not exchanging prisoners. I think it's disrespectful to come here and attack the administration that's trying to prevent the destruction of your country. We're thankful for the help we've received, but we've been strong since the beginning. We've been alone, but you haven't been alone. We have problems because of the war, and the US will feel it in the future, too. We're gambling with World War III. If you could get a ceasefire right now, you take it. You don't have the cards.

I don't believe Donald Trump will be president again. If Putin is betting on that, he will be in for a surprise. That's my first point.

President Zelenskyy needs to apologize for creating a fiasco. He was antagonistic and undermined our efforts to bring about peace by questioning our diplomatic approach. We were trying to get Russia to the table, but Zelenskyy's actions suggest he may not want a peace deal. We need to explore whether peace is possible, even if there's only a 1% chance. President Trump is trying to do this, while others seem to have no exit strategy, potentially prolonging the conflict. I doubt Zelenskyy is willing to do what's needed for negotiation, especially after public comments that undermine peace efforts. President Trump wants an enduring peace, and if I were Ukraine, I would be thanking him and supporting his efforts.

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.

The press is focused on narratives, but I am focused on peace. Characterizing my stance as pro-Russia or anything else is garbage. I was elected to bring peace to this conflict, and I'm working with both sides in a way that only I can. Only I can bring them to the table to end the killing. Being behind the scenes, I am laser-focused on making that happen. We're closer today than ever before because of my leadership.

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.

Вопрос о возможной встрече с президентом США Трампом и украинском урегулировании остается актуальным. Россия не отказывалась от контактов с США, хотя предыдущая администрация их избегала. Трамп и я имели деловые, доверительные отношения. Если бы он был президентом в 2020 году, возможно, кризиса в Украине удалось бы избежать. Однако его администрация также вводила санкции против России, что не способствовало интересам обеих стран. Мы открыты к переговорам по украинской проблематике, но действующий запрет на переговоры со стороны Киева создает препятствия. Существуют точки соприкосновения между нашими странами в вопросах стратегической стабильности и экономики. Мы готовы к диалогу, но это зависит от выбора американской администрации. --- The question of a possible meeting with President Trump and the Ukrainian settlement remains relevant. Russia has not refused contacts with the US, although the previous administration avoided them. Trump and I had business, trusting relations. If he had been president in 2020, the crisis in Ukraine might have been avoided. However, his administration also imposed sanctions on Russia, which did not serve the interests of both countries. We are open to negotiations on the Ukrainian issue, but the current ban on negotiations from Kyiv creates obstacles. There are points of convergence between our countries on strategic stability and economic issues. We are ready for dialogue, but this depends on the choice of the American administration.

It's tough to make a deal with the hatred some people have for Putin, but the other side isn't exactly in love with him either. I want to see this situation resolved and am aligned with Europe on this. I could be tougher than anyone, but that won't get us a deal. We had a president who talked tough about Putin, but then Putin invaded Ukraine. Diplomacy is the path to peace, not chest-thumping. Putin occupied parts of Ukraine back in 2014, and nobody stopped him. We signed ceasefire and gas contracts with him, but he broke the ceasefire and didn't exchange prisoners. What kind of diplomacy is that? I'm talking about diplomacy that ends the destruction. It's disrespectful to come here and attack the administration trying to prevent the destruction of your country.

Speaker 0: This thing over with. You see the hatred he's got for Putin. It's very tough for me to make a deal with that kind of hate. I'm aligned with the world. I wanna get the things set. If you want me to be tough? I could be tougher than any human being you've ever seen, but you're never gonna get a deal that way. Speaker 1: For four years in The United States Of America... we had a president who stood up at press conferences and talked tough about Vladimir Putin, and then Putin invaded Ukraine. The path to peace... is engaging in diplomacy. Speaker 2: He occupied it, our parts, big parts of Ukraine, parts of East and Crimea. So 2014. We signed ceasefire, gas contract, but after that, he broken the ceasefire, he killed our people, and he didn't exchange prisoners. What kind of diplomacy? Speaker 0: You should be thanking the president for trying to bring it into this conference. Speaker 2: We have problems. Speaker 0: You're gambling with World War three. You have the cards. With us, you have the cards. Without us you don't have any cards. I gave you the javelins to take out all those tanks. Obama gave you sheets. What if Russia breaks his fire?
