The approval values for President Selenskyj decrease significantly within the Ukraine War. However, they are not at four percent, he clarifies. US President Trump previously claims. The Ukrainian president makes it clear where this wrong number comes from.
Ukrainian President Wolodymyr Selenskyj has rejected the allegations of the American President Donald Trump to his supposedly low popularity values. “If someone wants to exchange me right now, it doesn't work now,” said Selenskyj at a press conference in Kiev and referred to approval values of over 50 percent in several surveys. Values of four percent are Russian disinformation. Kyiv has evidence that these digits were discussed between Washington and Moscow. For Trump and other partners, these survey values would be made public.
He also rejected the accusation of supposedly seepled US aids. “The war cost us $ 320 billion, 120 came from us. 200 are from the United States and the EU,” said the head of state for foreign arms deliveries. In addition, there would be a little more than $ 100 billion in budget support and humanitarian aid. He described the Trump claim of $ 500 billion as “dubious”.
“We are ready for a serious document, but we need security guarantees,” emphasized Selenskyj. The contract, among other things, provides for US access to Ukrainian raw materials, continues to work. In an interview, Trump had said that in return from Ukraine, he wanted rare earth worth $ 500 billion.
In the event of non -compliance with NATO, Ukraine also needs weapons and financing for its army. Selenskyj again emphasized that a reliable air defense could be provided by the United States alone. He also pushed for a stationing of foreign troops. “We are ready for a dialogue about the number,” said the president.
Previously, Trump had already caused irritation with a statement by suggesting that Ukraine should never have started the war (i.e. the invasion by Russia). Kyiv should have done a deal to prevent dead and destruction. But you decided against it, he said. What kind of deal it should have been about, Trump didn't say. In fact, there were no negotiations in Ukraine and Russia before the start of the Russian invasion. It is undisputed that only Russia started war.
