President of Ukraine invited US President Donald Trump to Kyiv. At the same time, Volodymyr Zelensky has informed on what he expects from his upcoming visit to the White House. He stated this at a security conference in Munich, UNN reported.

“I’m sure that this will happen (Zelensky’s visit to the White House - ed.), it's just you are very far from us. The last time I had a meeting with US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo, we talked about this and I said that I would really like my visit to America to be something personal for the two countries, with the very important result for both states, something beneficial for them,” Zelensky said.

He also noted that after the situation with the impeachment of Trump, he wants to start their relationship from scratch.

“Let's prepare a package of documents and meet. Therefore, now the ball is on the side of the US president, but we are always glad to see everyone in Ukraine. In principle, I am ready to invite and I invite President Trump to Kyiv. I am ready to meet him faster than he is ready to do,” Zelensky emphasized.

Earlier, Volodymyr Zelensky met with the US Congress delegation led by Senator James Inhofe. The President thanked the strong support of Ukraine from both houses of the US Congress. Zelensky emphasized the great importance of the military assistance that Ukraine receives from the United States, and expressed hope for an increase in its volumes and expansion of directions.

"I feel a very positive attitude of the United States of America towards Ukraine. US support is very important for us," the head of state emphasized.

Zelensky noted that Ukraine is committed to carrying out democratic reforms and effective anti-corruption policy.

So, Volod, ‘ole buddy — got any records showing the money laundering flow that Cokey Stripperhumper was getting paid $50k/month to oversee? Really curious to see some of the folks that needed that dough to go through a spin cycle or two before they could use it...

With the record of air flight “accidents” in and around former Soviet client states, that Trump and company would take great care.

I suspect when he comes to the WH he will have info on the money laundering investigation to share. That will be given to DOJ, but how much will be released to the public is the question - considering Biden is still running in the primary. It will include more than the Biden crime syndicate, IMO.

A person who was running for the Office of The President of the United States was investigated by the United States government, (specifically the Executive Branch). That person’s name was Donald J. Trump.

People have now forgotten that.

I have zero desire for America to be an “ally” to Ukraine. This is a near guarantee that we will literally fight someday on the old battlefields of the eastern front, on behalf of the EU and globalists.

the money laundering investigation along with fraud and influence peddling investigations are not being handled by US government, but Ukraine. The Brits also had an investigation on money laundering several years back but shelved it when the then Ukrainian government failed to provide requested documents. Also in France there is one going on named “Ukrainegate.”

Ukraine is a former nation member of the USSR but have always had a natural hatred of Russia and visa-versa. The two countries are actually engaged in combat operations - frequently. Obama refused to provide needed combat arms - anti-tank missiles as an example. Our POTUS has given them what they need. It seems to me Ukraine is our proxy in holding Russia in check.

Ze realized he is not joining EU anytime soon. Maybe he wants to chat Trump up and bump Puerto Rico from the line for 51th state.

I think the Brits are only the first to leave the EU. The Europeans are beginning to realize the EU is 3rd Reich lite - Germany is the dominant nation - very dominant, IMO.

That’s not the case for Ukraine. The main reason why people came to the square in Kiev in 2014 was a fake story in the media that president Yanukovich refused to sign up for EU.

And by the way Germany is only dominant in economic terms. Politically, militarily and diplomatically France is undisputed #1. The Germans just aren’t good at all these three things and they know it.

I don’t know. I think PDJT should proceed with great caution. While Zelensky may be Ukraine’s Trump, their swamp is just as murky as ours.

It is Europe. Who do you think has a military tougher than French in Europe?

Nobody.

And that refutes the main point of my post exactly how?

Not any:) But I really believe the French do not deserve their poor reputation. It is mostly British propaganda designed to deflect from their own cowardice.
It was the British and not the French who were running away in Dunkirk.
