Zelensky on Trump and the possibility of ending the war

Volodymyr Zelensky noted that a plan to end the war cannot be simple, yet even the most complex negotiation steps have value if they provide a chance for peace.

"The plan to end the war will not be simple, but it is still definitely a path. And if Trump provides the world, and primarily Ukrainians, with the opportunity for such a ceasefire — yes, he should be nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize. We will nominate him on behalf of Ukraine," the Ukrainian president stated.

Zelensky emphasized that any initiative aimed at achieving a ceasefire will be supported by Ukraine and the international community. The head of state stressed that such an event would be historic for the entire continent of Europe.
