The anticipated Zelensky flew overnight on a special plane, and didn't think he had just arrived in the United States, and Trump didn't just pretend. The White House erupted in an intense quarrel, and the familiar drama code played again. Ukraine's originally available "strike ax" missile is gone, and the United States has yet to give a final consensus. Now there are only two roads left in front of Ukraine, what will Zelensky choose?
Unexpectedly, more than half a year later, Zelensky saw that familiar face at the White House again. After seeing Trump, Zelensky came up and expressed his desire urgently, hoping that he could get the coveted "Tomahawk" missile on this trip and not return empty-handed.
The atmosphere of the talks between the two sides exceeded everyone's expectations. Instead of staging the emotional drama of "brothers getting good", it directly launched a fierce "scolding" mode.
Before Zelensky could do anything, he ignited Trump's anger. He directly threw out the map of the front line of Ukraine and forced Zelensky to hand over the Donbas area because this was Putin's request. Trump warned Zelensky that if he disagreed with Putin's terms, Russia would likely directly "destroy" Ukraine.
As for Zelensky's desire to obtain Tomahawk missiles to attack Russia, don't even think about it.
Most people who are familiar with the situation in Russia and Ukraine still don’t look very well at Ukraine. They think that in the U.S. negotiations, Trump will surely use all means to pressure Zelensky to make a compromise. Because the military forces of the Russian and Ukrainian sides are too dangerous. Putin has ordered the preparation of reserves of more than 2 million people to join the battlefield, and Russia has also earned a lot of strength, accelerating the production of various weapons ammunition. Winter temperatures are low, bad weather, the ground is easy to ice, it is unfavourable for soldiers to fight on the battlefield, and domestic food and various materials are also difficult to transport to the frontline. Putin obviously hopes to win the victory in the Russian conflict before the full arrival of the winter.
In front of Zelensky, Trump persuaded him easily. He said that on the Russian-Ukrainian battlefield, the Russian army had achieved obvious tension, and the soldiers' morale was very high, and they were planning to launch a larger-scale attack. There is only one fate waiting for the Ukrainian army, sooner or later. In order to avoid excessive losses, it is better to stop losses in time.
He suggested that according to the current situation on the front line, the two countries should discuss a ceasefire, and then withdraw their troops. Ukraine directly handed over most of the Donbas region to Russia, killing two birds with one stone. What a good thing.
In the eyes of Trump, Russia is a military power, and Putin is a wise leader. In the face of this adverse situation, Ukraine can only become a no-to-do "sack". If Ukraine must persist to fight it, Russia will surely increase the struggle, and the money and weapons the United States will smash more and more, but this is destined to be an irrevocable "dump account".
In the face of such a tough attitude of Trump, Zelensky still did not give up at all. He knew very well that as a president, to hand over the Donbass region to Russia, it was no different than "traitor", and the people in his own country could not let him go.
The talks did not get any substantial progress, a large circle, swinged or returned to the original point, Trump only said he would continue to support Ukraine's "freeze" approach, nothing else said.
Although the negotiations ended in vain, Ukraine still has great illusions about the United States. Zelensky believes that Trump has not explicitly rejected his request for Tomahawk missiles, but it may not be time yet, and he needs to increase pressure on Russia.
I have to say that Zelensky is still too naive. Just the day before his arrival, Trump had just finished a phone call with Putin. During the call, Putin explained his ceasefire conditions to Trump, emphasizing the demand that Ukraine abandon the Donbass region, and also agreed on the place of the next meeting. The atmosphere of the meeting is not to mention how harmonious. Compared with Zelensky, it is simply a heaven and a earth.
But nobody knows if this is really a "smoke bomb" released by Russia, used to mislead the United States and a bunch of allies? because Putin has not agreed to the ceasefire late before, Trump took the "strike ax" missiles as a threat, how Russia warned is useless.
Poor Zelensky white ran a trip, undoubtedly hit a whistle without saying, at the end of the day it was only to "return with empty hands."
Without the Tomahawk missile, how can Ukraine face the powerful Russian army? Zelensky has relented in his willingness to meet with Putin. What will happen to the situation in Russia and Ukraine next? We can only wait and see what happens.
