"[Trump] is using Putin's talking points. However, that's not a bad thing, because Putin's talking points are far closer to the actual truth. Whether it's about NATO expansion, what's happening on the battlefield in Ukraine, the nature of Zelensky's Gov't..." Karen Kwiatkowski noted that when Trump starts being honest...

Imagine Zelensky's face after Trump's shocking answers to questions from journalists yesterday about Ukraine: a meeting with Putin, a speedy end to the war, no NATO membership or security guarantees. ▪️The president-elect initially declined to answer a question about whether he would maintain aid to Ukraine during the negotiations. “I’m not going to tell you that,” Trump said. ▪️When asked whether he would provide security guarantees to Ukraine after the war (as Zelensky demands), Trump began to criticize the idea of Ukraine joining NATO. He said that Russia had been saying that such a step was unacceptable for it "for many, many years, long before Putin said so," and that it was "written in stone" (literally, "carved in stone," but some media translate this as "an established agreement"). ➖"And about halfway through, Biden said, no, they should be able to join NATO. Well, then Russia would have somebody right on their doorstep. And I can understand their feeling about that," Trump said. ▪️Later, he made it clear that Ukraine may never join NATO (this moment was not included in the video). That is, he said nothing about security guarantees, but the context of his answer is rather negative. Plus - a clear position against Ukraine joining NATO. ▪️Regarding another of his phrases, there was a discussion in the media about what Trump meant when he said that he “hopes that this will happen much sooner than in 6 months” - about the end of the war or about a meeting with Putin. ▪️The second question from the journalist, who had previously asked about a meeting with Putin, is not clearly audible on the video. It ends with the words "... have a conversation within three to six months?" Trump responded that he expected this conversation to happen "much sooner." ▪️What conversation Trump had in mind - with Putin or about ending the war in general, is not the most important thing in his answer. What is more important is that Trump once again stated that he wants the war in Ukraine to end as soon as possible, "because many, many young people, soldiers, are being killed every day", "hundreds of thousands of soldiers on both sides are dead. They are lying in the fields and no one can even collect them. It's a disaster", "only human bodies can stop bullets" and Trump regrets that he cannot start negotiations now, but must wait until the inauguration. On the backdrop of it, the Biden administration is to announce the last large military aid package to Ukraine in Ramstein that starts tomorrow.
