Defending Russia's aggression and allowing it to retain conquered territory under the pretext of Ukraine's Nato aspirations is indefensible. Russia had guaranteed Ukraine’s security in exchange for nuclear disarmament, which Ukraine honoured in good faith. Trump's apparent support for Russia, possibly motivated by business interests or ambitions in Greenland, is concerning. His demand for Zelensky to leave the White House is diplomatically inappropriate, and calling Zelensky a dictator while suggesting his resignation to end the war is extreme. Trump's push for peace talks without Ukraine or the EU defies international norms. Zelensky has resisted Russia’s brutal, unprovoked war for three years, thanks to US and EU support. Russia’s initial goal of a swift victory was thwarted due to this aid, ensuring Ukraine’s survival. Despite tensions, EU-US cooperation remains strong. Trump's past threats to withdraw from WHO and NATO signal a dangerous shift, undermining global stability. Demanding an apology from Zelensky merely to restore Russian pride is an unacceptable humiliation.
