Ukraine will not surrender territory, President Volodymyr Zelensky declared Monday, rejecting a central Russian demand that President Donald Trump had incorporated into his latest proposal to end the Kremlin’s war.
“Under our laws, under international law — and under moral law — we have no right to give anything away,” Zelensky said, after meeting with top European leaders to discuss Trump’s plan Monday. “That is what we are fighting for.”
The unequivocal declaration that Ukraine will not surrender land could mark the collapse of Trump’s plan, which critics condemned as fulfilling a wish list of Russian President Vladimir Putin.
Zelensky, speaking to journalists aboard his flight to Brussels following consultations with the leaders of Britain, France and Germany in London, made one of his clearest public statements yet on the emerging U.S.-backed proposal. He said the plan had been stripped of what he called “explicitly anti-Ukrainian provisions,” suggesting that Kyiv was open to a deal.

Well, OK.
Simple solution, just walk away.
Shrug. OK.
Just stop the checks and the weapons flowing to him.
Enough is enough—cut Z loose—he is on his own.
Yep, guess he can just drive over and take back the land….
And the intel.
If he wants to fight to the last man, I guess it’s his own people who are sore outta luck.
Then, Ukraine will either lose everything east of the Dnieper river and Odessa or cease to exist at all.
Zelensky is running this war for three reasons:
- cover up the massive corruption that is Ukraine
- stay in power. No war, no Zelensky
- keep fattening his assets by stealing from the funds that the suckers have sent him
Anyone else notice the last para is in complete conflict with everything else?
Well Ok.......but no more money for you!
We have very tough midterm elections coming up fast—domestic policy must get the administration’s full attention.
We do not have time to play footsie with Z.
Z-Man is willing to fight Russia to the last Ukrainian life... except for his.
No one has asked "Z" to deed over even a divit.
Draw a damn line and stop the killing. It's not rewarding Putin, its acknowledging that "To the Victor Goes the Spoils".
You pretty much covered it.
So he lets the slaughter continue until even his governmental thug comrades have had enough and he is removed — the usual way.
Let Europe take over. They have all the answers.
The “land” Zelensky really wants to protect are all of the foreign locations where he has his $$$$ stashed.
Okay then
bye
I think Z has sinister reasons for continuing but it’s only a hunch. Not one more God Damned cent. Let Canada and the rest go bankrupt helping him kill off his own ppl. It’s a shame because we need more Caucasians not less. I admire the Uke soldiers, as the whole workd does, but enough is enough.
Exactly.
The first time I saw him, I knew he was a dishonest creep. Woman’s intuition? Or was it obvious to others as well?
