Trump rips Zelensky for calling end to Ukraine war ‘very, very far away’: ‘Worst statement that could have been made’
NY Post ^ | March 3, 2025 | Steven Nelson and Diana Glebova

Posted on 03/03/2025 9:58:38 AM PST by McGruff

President Trump tore into Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky on Monday for saying that an end to his country’s three-year war with Russia was “very, very far away” — deepening the rift between the two leaders after a shouting match Friday in the Oval Office.

“This is the worst statement that could have been made by Zelenskyy [sic], and America will not put up with it for much longer!” Trump wrote on Truth Social.

“It is what I was saying, this guy doesn’t want there to be Peace as long as he has America’s backing and, Europe, in the meeting they had with Zelenskyy [sic], stated flatly that they cannot do the job without the U.S. [sic] – Probably not a great statement to have been made in terms of a show of strength against Russia. What are they thinking?”

All Zelinsky cares is about money, not lives lost in war.

It’ll be over in less than a month with out u.s. tax dollars.

The eu won’t go in to debt to fund the war.

Speaking of that if the UK can give them billions of dollars how come they can’t fully fund their NATO commitment?

If the Ukrainian Pravda press would be allowed to tell Ukrainians what Zelensky just said, then Ukranians might decide to overthrow him.

I don’t understand why Trump invited the midget to the White House in the first place. Things were going well with the adults (Trump and Putin) discussing terms. Why would they bring Zelensky into the talks?

They could have Fed Exed the mineral rights paperwork to Kiev with a return envelope and be done with it.

And all the people propping this fool up are worried about is making sure Trump does not get any credit for ending it.

It’s his gravy train. He’s a grifter. Of course he doesn’t want it to end.

Trump is good at exposing hypocrisy and grift. That’s why he invited Zelensky to the table.

Zalensky wants to fight until he causes WW3. And, his Brit handler is helping all he can. Just what the World needs: Brit soldiers killing Russians. Hopefully, Putin will stop playing rope a dope with this moron.

I don’t understand why Trump invited the midget to the White House in the first place.

1. The midget insisted on signing the mineral rights deal in Washington.

2. Trump knew exactly what was going to happen, so he made sure the whole thing played out in front of the TV cameras.

3. The midget and his Democrat/Globalist GOP backers expected Trump to capitulate on key terms. The meeting was scheduled on Friday because the midget was supposedly going to make a triumphant propaganda appearance at the Academy Awards last night in California.

“I don’t understand why Trump invited the midget to the White House”

The plan was that he was to sign in a couple places in Europe, with Rubio and Bessent. I think one place was Munich. I can’t recall the other. He refused and said he wanted to do it here. So he wasn’t exactly “invited”.

And he didn’t get lunch.

As long as there is a war, he has an excuse to not hold elections.

Zelensky's primary goal is the restoration of Ukraine's borders to before the invasion.

If he thinks WWIII is what it will take to defeat Russia and bring back Ukraine's historic borders, he'll do it.

This is the evil of the globalist cabal.

They just don’t want Trump to bring peace. They are willing to kill a million more to prevent it.

But in doing so, they have managed to make Zelensky a villain while the real villain sits back quietly and smiles.

Pull all funding. Work towards normalizing ties with Russia. Why should US foreign policy be held up by Zelensky?

There is a former Romanian on youtube predicting that once the Banderite regime in Ukraine gets cut off, they WILL, launch drones agsinst the western European cities.
They have attacked UFA? Well that place is about one thousand miles from their launch sites.
Point is, they can and will retaliate against the west if they are cut off, and try and blame it on Russia.

He experienced the former regime in Romania and cautions against trusting the Ukrainian regime.
