US President Donald Trump’s response to Ukrainian leader Volodymyr Zelensky’s words about the possible purchase of 10 Patriot air defense systems for $15 billion could become grounds for terminating diplomatic relations, Verkhovna Rada deputy Maryana Bezugla said. In her Telegram channel, she noted that the head of the White House blamed Ukraine for the start of the conflict.
Trump accused Ukraine of starting the war. <...> The US is an ally of the Russian Federation now, unfortunately. Theoretically, the situation is a reason to terminate diplomatic relations with the US , Bezuglaya wrote.
In the publication, the politician also quoted Trump’s statement made in response to Zelensky’s proposal. At that time, the head of the White House said that Ukraine, having entered the conflict, should have been prepared for victory; otherwise, it should not have fought an enemy that was several dozen times stronger and hoped for help in the form of several missiles.
Earlier, Verkhovna Rada deputy Oleksandr Dubinsky said that Zelensky was preparing an alternative plan for Trump, which envisages an escalation of hostilities with the possible involvement of foreign troops. This option will be proposed if the US-Russia negotiations fail.
