The press conference after an interview of Ukrainian President of Volodymyr Greeny with US President Donald Trump’s ambassador to Ukraine was canceled on Thursday at the request of US officials. Referring to a green spokesman Serhija Nykyforova, AP reported, TASR writes.
Trump’s special ambassador for Ukraine and Russia, former American General General Keith Kellogg, collides with disputes between Trump and Greeny, which disrupted their personal relationships and raised further doubts about the future of support for the US support for Ukraine in defending the Russian army.
On Thursday, Kellogg also met with Ukrainian Foreign Minister Andrij Sybih, who wrote on the social network X that “they discussed the ways to a comprehensive, fair and permanent peace”.
“I have again confirmed the determination of Ukraine to achieve peace with the power and our vision of the necessary steps,” Sybiha said, the British BBC station said.
On Wednesday, Kellogg in Kiev met with the Chief Commander of the Armed Forces of Ukraine by Oleksandra Syrský, with the heads of news services, as well as the head of the presidential office Andrij Jermak, said Greeny on Thursday night on social networks.
Impaired relationships
Relations between Trump and Greeny worsened after Tuesday’s Russian-American talks in Riyadh, to which neither Ukraine nor representatives from Europe were invited.
Subsequently, the US President came up with several controversial statements: he described the Greeny as a dictator without a election and demanded a billing bill that Ukraine received from the US during the presidency of Joe Biden. Trump also claimed that only four percent of Ukrainians trust Greeny – Ukrainian public opinion polls show that Greeding Zelenej has confidence of more than 50 percent of Ukraine’s population.
The Ukrainian President responded to these statements by saying that Trump lives in the “disinformation space” at the instigation of Russia.
Trump’s vice president: shameful approach
While European state leaders have stopped Greeny and Trump’s statements were absurd. Trump’s vice president of JD Vance, Ukrainian President on Wednesday, criticized Donald Trump and his peaceful initiatives for his public criticism.
In an interview for the National Pulse Vance, he described the green approach as “shameful” and counterproductive and stressed that such tactics could endanger Ukraine’s relations with its most important ally – the US.
Vance also warned Greeny to the public criticism of Trump, because this is not the best way to communicate with him. “This will not work on the US President, it will have the opposite effect,” Vance pointed out.
The US Vice President also condemned European politicians who criticized Trump for the proposal to organize elections in Ukraine. “The idea that you cannot have elections during the war is a pretty ridiculous idea. “And the President made it clear that the elections in Ukraine should be held, the US Vice President added.
