Ukraine can fully restore its territorial integrity with the support of the European Union and then "go even further," according to US President Donald Trump on Truth Social.
"After getting to know and fully understand the Ukraine/Russia Military and Economic situation and, after seeing the Economic trouble it is causing Russia, I think Ukraine, with the support of the European Union, is in a position to fight and WIN all of Ukraine back in its original form," Trump emphasized.
He clarified that restoring Ukraine’s territorial integrity is possible "with time, patience, and the financial support of Europe and, in particular, NATO."
According to him, Russia has been fighting aimlessly for three and a half years, while “true military strength” would have achieved victory within a week. This makes Russia very much like a "paper tiger" — appearing threatening but actually posing no real danger.
"When the people living in Moscow, and all of the Great Cities, Towns, and Districts all throughout Russia, find out what is really going on with this War, the fact that it’s almost impossible for them to get Gasoline through the long lines that are being formed, and all of the other things that are taking place in their War Economy, where most of their money is being spent on fighting Ukraine, which has Great Spirit, and only getting better, Ukraine would be able to take back their Country in its original form and, who knows, maybe even go further than that!" the US leader said.
He noted that Russian President Vladimir Putin currently faces major economic problems, making now the time for Ukraine to act.
Trump also promised that the US will continue supplying NATO weapons so that NATO can use them at its discretion.
Trump and Zelenskyy meeting
US President Donald Trump made this statement after meeting with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy in New York.
The Ukrainian head of state, in particular, told the US leader about the successes of Ukrainian defenders — this month they managed to liberate 360 square kilometers of territory previously controlled by Russia.
According to Zelenskyy, the Ukrainian Armed Forces have also encircled 1,000 Russian soldiers. The president is hoping for their exchange.
