After meeting with Trump, Zelensky gave an interview to Fox News, highlighting key points from their discussion.

As previously reported by “Judicial and Legal Newspaper”, on February 28, U.S. President Donald Trump met with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky at the White House. During their meeting, a dispute arose regarding when and under what conditions the ceasefire should take place.

Later, Zelensky gave an exclusive interview to American channel Fox News.

Main points from the interview:

• Grateful to the Americans. U.S. assistance has been critically important since the beginning of the war.
• If anyone wants to verify the funds sent to us, we are open to that.
• I respect Trump and I respect the American people. But I am not sure we have done anything wrong. The Trump administration needs to hear Ukraine's position.
• As Reagan said, “peace is not the absence of war.” That’s why I said that the ceasefire will be violated.
• We are strategic partners. In these difficult times, we must be honest.
• I would not want to lose our biggest partner.
• If you had the chance to return to the White House right now, would you?

          Zelensky: No.

• Only Ukrainians choose the President of Ukraine — a response to Republican Lindsey Graham, who urged Zelensky to resign.
• I don’t know if today’s situation at the White House was planned.
• I think we need to discuss something without the media. We are very close partners with the U.S.
• President Trump wants to end this war, but no one wants it more than we do. In Ukraine, we are fighting for freedom, for our lives.
• I cannot tell my people: “Stop.” No one will stop because everyone is afraid that tomorrow Putin will return.
• I cannot change our attitude towards Russians because they are murderers. That does not mean we do not want peace.
• I am grateful to Trump for wanting to end the war, but Putin has violated the ceasefire 25 times.
• Ukrainians just want to hear that the U.S. is on our side, not on Russia's side.
• It is very important to stop Putin. I heard from President Trump that he will stop the war, and I hope it will be together with our European allies.
• We are ready to sign an agreement on minerals, but that is not enough.
• We are ready for peace. But we must be in a strong position. We need guarantees.
• My relationship with Trump can be salvaged. Historically, the relationships between our peoples are strong. Americans helped save Ukrainians.
