Ukraine's President Volodymyr Zelenskyy called into question the U.S.' commitment to its allies in Europe. Zelenskyy said President Donald Trump's first act as president — the signing of a raft of executive orders on a raft of domestic issues — suggested his administration would not be overly concerned with Europe's future.

When it comes to the security of Europe, one cannot rely on the goodwill of a few capitals or that Russian President Vladimir Putin will die eventually, President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelenskyy says at the World Economic Forum in Davos.

Ukrainian president calls on European politicians to “be more than just bystanders” who are “reduced to posting on X after an agreement has already been made.”

Zelenskyy barely addressed Trump’s professed desire to bring a swift end to the war — although the US president and his advisers have recently said it could take six months to reach a deal, rather than his campaign boast of 24 hours. Nor did he address those Trump supporters who have called for an end to US aid to Ukraine.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said Tuesday that if a ceasefire deal were enacted with Russia, "at least 200,000 European peacekeepers" would need to be on the ground in Ukraine to defend the Eastern European country against a possible attack by Russia.

In his speech at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Ukraine's President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has stressed that it is time for Europe to take its destiny into its own hands and become stronger and more capable of being as valuable an ally for the United States as the United States is for Europe.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy warned Europe that it has “no chance” against Russia without Ukraine. Speaking to Polish media outlet Onet, Zelenskyy said that Ukraine’s victory was vital to stopping the Kremlin before it could invade the rest of Europe.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, who is seeking a meeting with U.S. President Donald Trump, said on Tuesday that at least 200,000 European peacekeepers would be needed to prevent a new Russian attack after any ceasefire deal.

U.S. President Donald Trump signaled the possibility of placing additional sanctions on Russia for its war in Ukraine. Asked about the prospect while speaking to reporters Tuesday, Trump responded, “Sounds likely.”
