A Kremlin representative has spoken on Ukraine’s Volodymyr Zelensky’s willingness to negotiate after Donald Trump read a letter from the latter in front of Congress.
Last week, President Donald Trump and Vice President JD Vance met with Ukraine’s Zelensky to discuss various matters, the most pressing of which happens to be Ukraine’s ongoing war with Russia.
The situation grew tense with Trump and Vance expressing their disappointment with Zelensky’s lack of gratitude and seeming unwillingness to negotiate a ceasefire with Russia.
“You’re gambling with the lives of millions of people”, Trump said during the meeting. “You’re gambling with World War Three, and what you’re doing is very disrespectful to the country, this country that’s backed you far more than a lot of people say they should have,” the President of the United States added.
Trump said he would pause all military aid to Ukraine, a move which the Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov appreciated as being the ‘best contribution to the cause of peace.’
After his early exit from the White House, Zelensky wrote a letter to President Donald Trump which he read aloud in front of Congress yesterday on March 4, 2025. He said, “Ukraine is ready to come to the negotiating table as soon as possible.”
The latter further said, “My team and I stand ready to work under President Trump’s strong leadership to get a peace that lasts,” it went on, “We do really value how much America has done to help Ukraine maintain its sovereignty and independence.”
