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.

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?

Zelensky needs to act swiftly, as the war isn't progressing favorably for Ukraine. I believe I can successfully negotiate an end to the war with Russia, something others have failed to do. Putin may even agree. Zelensky seems unwilling or unable to pursue peace, evident by his frustration over not being invited to Saudi Arabia, and the fact that there have been no productive talks to end the war in three years. The war has resulted in devastating casualties for both sides, with countless lives lost. Ukraine is shattered under his leadership. To end this, you must talk to both sides, which hasn't happened. My hope is to see a ceasefire soon and restore stability in Europe.

We had a meeting with President Zelensky, and it didn't go as well as I'd hoped. I believe he overplayed his hand. I'm focused on achieving peace, not engaging in a prolonged war. Zelensky seems intent on continuing the fight, but I'm determined to end the bloodshed. Thousands have died this week, and I care about all lives involved. If we don't act, he'll eventually be forced to make peace, but he'll be in a weaker position. I want immediate peace, and Putin is ready to end this conflict. However, Zelensky appears to want us to sign up and continue fighting, which we won't do. We're setting economic records and the feeling about our country is great. Zelensky needs to express a desire for peace, not dwell on negative comments. I don't trust or distrust, I just want a deal done. A ceasefire should happen now, but he doesn't want it. Without us, he doesn't win.

I believe Ukraine needs support in the form of weapons and fighter pilots to win the war. We should provide F-16s and training for pilots. I want Ukraine to join NATO by 2024. We should issue an invitation and provide more weapons in December to help them fight in 2025. American-made weapons are being used effectively by the Ukrainians, benefiting both countries.

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.

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.

President Zelenskyy needs to apologize for turning our meeting into a fiasco by being antagonistic. He undermined our efforts to bring about peace by attacking Putin and making maximalist demands. This makes us question whether he truly wants a peace deal. Our goal is to explore whether peace is possible and get Russia to the negotiating table. I question whether Zelenskyy is willing to do what's needed for a negotiation. Despite reports, we are coordinating with the Ukrainians. President Trump wants to bring an end to this unsustainable, bloody war. He's the only leader who has a chance of achieving this. Zelenskyy should be thanking and supporting President Trump for his efforts to help bring an end to this war.

We've reached a fair deal, giving the U.S. access to rare earth elements and we've had good discussions with Russia to bring the war to a close. President Putin and I are working towards a deal to stop the soldier deaths and rebuild Ukraine. The Biden administration didn't engage with Russia, but if I were president, this war never would have happened. Ukraine's soldiers have been brave, and it's time to end this. We'll sign an agreement soon, aiming for a deal to stop the shooting. I hope that it is a first step to real security guarantees for Ukraine and our people, our children. I hope that America continues to support our freedom, our values, and democracy. I want to stop Putin; he's a killer and terrorist. We spoke about drones and air defense because after the war, we need to know that our nation is secure and we have an air shield.

President Trump is upset with President Zelensky, and rightfully so. The Biden administration had their own frustrations with Zelensky. I was personally upset when Zelensky rejected a mineral rights deal we discussed, especially after we presented it as a security guarantee. President Trump's message isn't that we don't care about Ukraine, but it's on another continent and doesn't directly impact Americans. Some gratitude is expected, and Zelensky's accusations of disinformation are counterproductive. President Trump is transparent and won't be manipulated. He's willing to work on peace if Zelensky is a partner. Regarding a meeting between President Trump and President Putin, it won't happen until we have an agenda and expected outcomes. The timing depends on progress in ending the war in Ukraine. If President Trump can seal a peace deal, it should be celebrated, because he is the only global leader that can make this happen, others have tried and failed.

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.

To restart talks, Zelensky needs to say he wants peace. He doesn't need to say negative things about me. He simply has to state, "I want to make peace. I don't want to fight this war any longer." His people are dying, and he needs to understand he doesn't hold the strong cards in this situation.

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.

Russia occupied parts of Ukraine, including Crimea, starting in 2014. During the Obama, Trump, and Biden administrations, no one stopped him as people died on the contact line. In 2019, I signed a ceasefire deal with Macron, Merkel, and him, but he broke it, killing people and not exchanging prisoners. We need diplomacy to end the destruction of Ukraine. We have problems during the war, like everyone else. We are staying strong and thankful for the support, but we are not winning. You have given us billions of dollars in military equipment. I have said thank you many times to the American people. We want to stop the war, but we want a ceasefire with guarantees. Ask our people about a ceasefire. Obama gave us sheets, but Trump gave us javelins. Without your support, we have no cards.

The Alaska summit reinforced my belief that “president Putin agreed that Russia would accept security guarantees for Ukraine,” a key point to consider. “I'm optimistic that, collectively, we can reach an agreement that would deter any future aggression against Ukraine,” though I also note, “I actually think there won't be. I think that's even over overrated, largely overrated.” European nations are gonna take a lot of the burden; “we're gonna help them, and we're gonna make it very secure.” We also need to discuss “the possible exchanges of territory taken into consideration the current line of contact.” That means “the war zone, the war lines that are pretty obvious, very sad, actually, to look at them.” The next step: “a trilateral meeting, and that will be worked out.” “I have a feeling you and president Putin are gonna work something out.” Ultimately, Zelensky and the Ukrainian people, with Putin, must decide. “I'll set up a meeting with President Putin.” “All of us would obviously prefer an immediate ceasefire … maybe something like that could happen.” “As of this moment, it's not happening.” “I believe a peace agreement … is very attainable,” and “The next step would be for a trilateral meeting, and that will be worked out.”

I hope the Kyiv airport opens soon for easier travel. The war will end, and it would be symbolic for President Trump to visit. Trust is crucial; we fight misinformation and corruption. We receive weapons, not money, and we are committed to fighting corruption. Putin does not love his country; he uses people as pawns. We need strong security guarantees for Ukraine, and NATO membership is vital. The future of Ukraine lies in digitalization and investment in various sectors. We aim for peace and a return of our people after the war. I respect Elon Musk for his innovations, and we are grateful for his support. Ultimately, we want to rebuild Ukraine and ensure our sovereignty.

Only the Ukrainian people can decide my resignation.
