The Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has said that Ukraine will “never accept” any decisions for peace made by the US President Donald Trump and the little Botox hamster Vladimir Putin.
President Zelensky told NBC News in an interview that he and Ukraine will “never accept any decisions between the United States and Russia” over any possibly negotiation for peace unless Ukraine is a participant.
There has been reports made during the Munich Security Conference by President Zelensky that a US delegation is set to meet with Russian official on Tuesday 18 February in Saudi Arabia.
Zelensky said, “We have this place at the table at the very beginning, and we are the first who are at this table because the war is in Ukraine,” adding Ukrainians rightly would never accept any deal without Kyiv officials present.

President Zelensky said, “We are thankful for all the support, unity in the U.S. around Ukraine support – even bipartisan support – we are thankful for all of this, but there is no leader in the world that can make a deal with [Russian President] Putin without us, about us.”
Most shockingly President Zelensky only found out about the upcoming meeting between the US and Russia in Saudi through the press, adding that Kyiv has not even had any formal invitation to attend the peace negotiations.
On Sunday Zelensky said that President Trump’s approach is possible, but Putting must go to prison and Russia has to pull out of all Ukrainian territory.
RBC-Ukraine reported the Zelensky saying, “I am not only counting on it (a seat at the negotiating table – ed.), I am sure that we must be there, otherwise it will be unacceptable.
“But if a decision is made without us, and Putin leaves all of our land, we will be in NATO, and Putin will be in prison, then President Trump can do it without us.”
On 15 February, President Zelensky said, “We didn’t talk about it. The media printed something. I saw that someone said that there would be a meeting in Saudi Arabia. I do not know what it is.”
The advisor to President Zelensky, Mykhailo Podolyak said on 15 February on Ukrainian TV, “There is nothing on the negotiating table that would be worth discussing,” adding that “Russia is not ready for negotiations.”
