Trump calls Zelenski dictator and warns him that Ukraine will disappear if he doesn’t act fast

The president of the United States, Donald Trump, called on Wednesday dictator to his Ukrainian counterpart, Volodimir Zelenski, and warned him that, if he does not act quickly, his country could disappear.

«A dictator without elections. Zelenski is better to move fast or run out of country, ”Trump wrote in his social network, Truth Social, where he criticized the Ukrainian president for refusing to celebrate elections and for being very low in the surveys in Ukraine.

Zelenski, who was elected president in 2019, could have been presented to re -election in elections that should have been held in March or April 2024, but have not taken place due to the imposition of the martial law by war.

Trump considered that the only thing that Zelenski was good was to handle the former president of the United States Joe Biden (2021-2025), who distinguished himself by his support for Ukraine and for having presented a unified front before Russia, coordinating with The European Union in sanctions and military aid.

«Meanwhile, we are successfully negotiating the end of the war with Russia, something that everyone admits that only Trump and the Trump administration can do,» said the US leader.

Trump tone climb

Trump’s message is a tone rise after Tuesday culparated Ukraine for having initiated the war with Russia and ridiculed Zelenski as an ineffective and extremely incompetent negotiator, stating that the country should have reached an agreement after three years of conflict.

«Think about it well: a comedian of moderate success, Volodimir Zelenski, convinced the United States to spend 350,000 million dollars in a war that could not be won, that he never had to have started, but that he, without the United States and without Trump , you can never solve, ”Trump wrote.

Trump, who has been very critical of the amount of money that the United States has sent to Ukraine, said that the country has spent 200,000 million dollars more than Europe in this cause and wondered why its predecessor, Joe Biden, which he detailed in spending He calls «Sleepy Joe Biden», did not demand a more equitable cast of spending.

Actually, European countries, including the European Union, have sent more help to Ukraine than the United States, with an allocation of 132,000 million euros compared to 114,000 million Washington, although this does exceed Europe in the delivery of military aid , according to official data.

«This war is much more important for Europe than for us. We have a great and beautiful ocean that separates us, ”said Trump, repeating an idea that he has expressed on other occasions and reflects his isolationist vision of the United States due to his geographical situation.

The money «missing»

Despite the big sums of money sent by the United States to Ukraine, Trump criticized that Zelenski has admitted that half of the money that has been sent is «missing.»

These president’s comments refer to an interview that Zelenski granted to the agency Associated Press on February 2, in which he said that, of the 177,000 million dollars that it was said that the United States had allocated to Ukraine, his country had only received 75,000 million.

Their statements generated confusion and led some media to question what had happened with the remaining 100,000 million that were supposedly «missing.»

Actually, according to the Center for Center for Strategic and International Studies (CSIS), only part of the money that the United States assigns to war in Ukraine is under Ukrainian control, since much of the funds are destined to other activities related to The conflict indirectly, such as the training of Ukrainian troops.

Finally, Trump concluded his publication with criticism of both Zelenski and Biden and Europe.

«Biden never tried, Europe has failed to achieve peace and Zelenski probably wants the ‘money tap’ to remain open. I love Ukraine, but Zelenski has done a terrible job, his country is devastated and millions have died unnecessarily. And so he continues … », he said.

The relationship between Trump and Zelenski has been grated following the conversations held this week in Saudi Arabia between an American delegation and Russian representatives to end the war, in which neither Ukraine nor its European allies participated.
