Zelensky: Putin is trying to manipulate Trump.

Russian President Vladimir Putin is trying to manipulate his American counterpart Donald Trump, according to Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky. Putin said he is willing to talk to Trump about Ukraine, but Ukrainian intelligence services believe Russia wants to continue fighting.

This is a very remarkable statement by Zelensky, who managed to maintain a war for 3 years by asking for money and weapons again and again. Billions of taxpayers have been spent on this (useless) war, thousands have died and it has caused a very large wave of refugees to fly away.

Zelensky: Poetin probeert Trump te manipuleren

De Russische president Vladimir Poetin probeert zijn Amerikaanse ambtgenoot Donald Trump te manipuleren, stelt de Oekraïense president Volodymyr Zelensky.
Poetin zei dat hij bereid is om met Trump te praten over Oekraïne, maar de Oekraïense inlichtingendiensten denken dat Rusland door wil vechten.

Dit is een zeer opmerkelijke uitspraak vab Zelensky dat zelf 3 jaar lang zelf een oorlog instand heeft weten te houden door keer op keer te vragen om geld en wapens. Miljarden van belastingbetalers zijn aan deze (nutteloze) oolog besteed, duizenden dodelijke slachtoffer en het heeft een zeer grote vluchtelingen strroom ten gevlogen getracht.
