President Volodymyr Zelensky commented on Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk's recent statement that the United States could agree to station troops in Ukraine after a peace agreement is reached. The head of state emphasized that the decision would be made in Washington.

Regarding the possibility of U.S. troops in Ukraine, Zelensky stated that he cannot confirm such a scenario because only the President of the United States can make that decision.

"These are US troops, so it is America that makes such decisions. Of course, we are discussing this with President Trump and representatives of the "Coalition of the Willing." We would like this. It would be a strong position in security guarantees," Ukrainian leader emphasized.
