Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky expressed his deep gratitude to former US President Donald Trump and the American people for their support during the ongoing conflict with Russia. He emphasized the importance of the strategic partnership between the two nations, especially during these challenging times.

Zelensky acknowledged the shared desire for an end to the war, stating that no one wants it more than the people of Ukraine. He emphasized that Ukrainians are fighting for their freedom and lives, and that stopping Russian President Vladimir Putin is crucial.

He expressed hope that Trump's stated intention to stop the war would materialize, ideally with the support of European allies. Zelensky also acknowledged the need for open and honest discussions beyond the public eye.

The Ukrainian President reiterated the close partnership between Ukraine and the United States, highlighting their readiness to sign a deal on minerals. However, he emphasized the need for further action beyond this agreement, possibly a plan from Trump to stop Putin.
