  3. America is not yr guarantor, we are not interested being one. America bully u? So bs. Our president is protecting Americans n America tax payers had gone a big chuck to ukrain way more that eu combine. Enough us enough. It is awesome to know eu stand strong wth ukraine n support ukraine all the way. Is time America exists from this. God bless

  4. Zelensky is sick. F20. Schizophrenia affects the way people think, behave and feel. This can lead to a mixture of hallucinations, delusions, and disorganized thinking and behavior. Hallucinations include seeing things or hearing voices that others do not notice.

  5. Trump is a leader with out principle and idealogy ,He goes as he likes. He is more interested in keeping good relationship with North Korea and Russia.

  6. Trump wants war not peace. Talking over Zelenskyy over and over , then kicking him out will result in war. Trumps' own greed, power and revenge will take America down with him. Sadly he will cry and blame others like normal.

  7. It's really simple. You thank the US for its support and comment that we hope there is a way for a peaceful settlement to the conflict. Shake hands and smile.

  8. Zelenskyy, a washed-up comic, conned the U.S. into dumping $350B on a doomed war we didn’t need. Half the cash? ‘Missing.’ Ukraine’s shattered, millions dead—his fault. Without Trump, he’s sunk. What a disgrace.

  9. Why doesn't he realize that the mineral deal would make it a US interest which then the US would want to protect it. He cant keep saying he needs guarantees in public this early in the attempt for peace and keep demanding it when they are unfortunately the underdog. Everyone trying to produce peace understands that we don't want it to happen again so there will be things put in place that hopefully do that but you need to start somewhere and you cant say what you are going to do in advance because then you don't have any strength at the bargaining table. He is trying to help his country I know but if he wants help from others e needs to protect them too by keeping discussions behind closed doors and not demanding things from those trying to help.

  10. This war for Zelensky is about status, money and power. Why did Zelensky indefinitely cancel free elections in the country? Because he wants the power and money. Remember, he was just a loud mouthed comedian before he came into power and now he doesn't want to let it go.

  11. I wish people would stop making it sound like Zelenskyy was part of the dysfunction. He remained a gentleman throughout. A good example of leadership and diplomacy.

    The hypocrisy and lack of decorum by Vance and Trump were just abysmal. Again.

  12. I've noticed that as most big cities and little towns in Ukraine are being destroyed and are left to rubble everyone wants to keep the war going despite the destruction of those cities but now that Kiev is being attacked all of a sudden it's a big issue. It just seems that war is fine in other cities but not in Kiev

  13. All good but Zelenskyy needs to listen and understand… The us have meet France and the UK talking about peace keeper on the ground…? Did maybe I miss somethings?

  14. The meeting was far from normal. Zelensky started the disaster by discussing negotiating topics in a public forum in front of the world press rather than during the afternoon private negotiations session when he can say whatever he wants. A mineral deal would be signed advantageous to both sides, and separate discussions on a peace agreement. What he did was a breech of protocol and highly disrespectful to Ukraine’s biggest ally that GAVE hundreds of billions of dollars and weapons free to Ukraine unlike European allies that demanded that Ukraine pay. This was really stupid behavior by Zelensky. Now Ukraine may get nothing from the U.S.

  15. France & Germany need to wake up. The USA is withdrawing from Europe (at last…) and Russia’s going nowhere. Russians are Europeans. Always have been. Moscow is the largest city in Europe with cathedrals, statues and gargoyles on their buildings just like in Paris or London.

    France & Germany betrayed Russia in Minsk & Minsk 2 (Angela Merkl admitted it) and that’s why Russia invaded. Sure, France & Germany were under duress from the USA, so they chose historically – went with what worked in the 50s – Americans goodies, USSR baddies. But 2015 wasn’t 1950 it turns out … so Ukraine loses. France loses. Germany loses. Russia has also lost (many men on the battlefield), but they’ll never be conquered by Ukraine.

  16. Donald , I refuse to call him with his title, as usual disgraceful and rude. He thinks everyone is his servant.
    Thanks to the President of Ukraine for keeping calm, and let the clown be a clown.
    Donald doesn’t have any idea what is to fight for the freedom of your country.

  17. What do you think Americans in Ukraine mining minerals means? Do you think if Americans are attacked, the US doesn't react or put forces in place…That is the security.
