Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy publicly thanked the United States, its citizens, and President Donald Trump for continued support to Ukraine.
Ukranian President added, American assistance, beginning with Javelin anti-tank systems — had played a critical role in saving lives during the war with Russia.
In a message shared on X on Sunday, Zelenskyy wrote:
“Ukraine is grateful to the United States, to every American heart, and personally to President Trump for the assistance that – starting with the Javelins – has been saving Ukrainian lives.”
His remarks came shortly after President Trump stated that Ukrainian leaders had shown “zero gratitude” for U.S. support.
The Ukranian President Zelenskyy stressed the importance of continued backing from Ukraine’s partners, including Europe and nations within the G7 and G20 frameworks.
“We thank everyone in Europe, in the G7, and in the G20 who is helping us defend life. It is important to preserve the support,” he wrote.
He warned that Russia was working to prolong the conflict and preserve its ability to wage war beyond Ukraine’s borders.
In a widely circulated longer statement posted earlier, Zelenskiy accused Russia and its leadership of intentionally waging a brutal, long-term conflict.
“It was Russia, and only Russia, that started this war, and it is Russia, and only Russia, that has been refusing to end it,” he said.
He alleged that Russian commanders had been given explicit orders allowing indiscriminate killing, and accused Moscow of abducting Ukrainian children and sending conscripts born after the annexation of Crimea to the frontlines.
The renewed diplomatic messaging follows high-level talks in Geneva on Sunday between Ukrainian, U.S., and European officials. The discussions focused on a draft peace framework recently proposed by Washington — a plan that has sparked concern in Kyiv and among its allies over what they view as potential concessions to Moscow.
According to Ukrainian officials, any peace roadmap must ensure a complete end to hostilities and long-term security guarantees.
“Everything must work out the right way – so that this war is truly ended and so that it does not happen again,” Zelenskiy posted.
The president ended his statement with a message of national pride and solidarity.
