Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelenskyy is standing in the center without a helmet. 

Yesterday, February 20,2025, United States President Donald J. Trump published the following statement on X:

Think of it: a modestly successful comedian, Volodymyr Zelenskyy, talked the United States of America into spending 350 Billion Dollars to go into a War that couldn't be won, that never had to start, but a War that he, without the U.S. and "TRUMP," will never be able to settle.

The United States has spent 200 Billion Dollars more than Europe, and Europe's money is guaranteed, while the United States will get nothing back.

Why didn't Sleepy Joe Biden demand Equalization in that this
War is far more important to Europe than it is to us— We have a big, beautiful Ocean as separation. On top of this, Zelenskyy admits that half of the money we sent him is "MISSING." He refuses to have Elections, is very low in Ukrainian Polls, and the only thing he was good at was playing Biden "like a fiddle." A dictator without elections means Zelenskyy had better move fast, or he would not have a country left.

In the meantime, we are successfully negotiating an end to the War with Russia, something all admit only "TRUMP" and the Trump Administration can do. Biden never tried, Europe has failed to bring Peace, and Zelenskyy probably wants to keep the "gravy train" going.

I love Ukraine, but Zelenskyy has done a terrible job, his Country is shattered, and MILLIONS have unnecessarily died - And so it continues.....
