Summary

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy stated that enforcing a peace deal with Russia would require at least 200,000 allied troops, emphasizing Europe’s need to strengthen its defenses against Russian aggression.

Speaking at Davos, he called for greater EU investment in military technology and urged NATO membership as Ukraine’s best security guarantee, despite opposition from the U.S., Germany, Hungary, and Slovakia.

Zelenskyy criticized Kremlin demands to shrink Ukraine’s army and warned that if Russia wins in Ukraine, it could threaten other nations.

    This war didn’t end? It’s been over a day since trump took office. He said he would end the war on day 1. No way a stand up guy like donald would lie right?

      We all know how he wants to end it, so it not being ended is probably the better option…

      He did actually walk that back last week, so technically he didn’t lie.

          He did, he said it months beforehand then walked it back a week before being sworn in (well after the election)
