Zelenskyy says he will not accept any agreements about Ukraine that do not include his country

I think we’re not sufficiently grasping the extent to which our world is changing. Both our competitors and our allies are busy accelerating,

Haddad told broadcaster France Info on Thursday

I don’t see any way that a country in Russia’s position could allow ... them to join NATO,

Trump said Thursday

Vance Palmervice President

Fundamentally, the goal is, as President Trump outlined it, we want the war to come to a close,

Vance said

I think I said it first that we have to meet,

he added

We have our plan, of course. It’s our country; that’s why it’s our plan,

Zelenskyy insisted, after which the host asked again that

We have to meet urgently if we really want to stop [the war – ed.],

he added, without specifying the likely date of such talks

Volodymyr Zelenskyypresident

Yesterday here in Munich, the US vice president made it clear – decades of the old relationship between Europe and America are ending. From now on, things will be different, and Europe needs to adjust to that,

Zelensky said

Volodymyr Zelenskyypresident

I told Trump that Putin is afraid of him and he heard me. And now Putin knows,

Zelensky said wryly

Ukraine will never accept deals made behind our backs without our involvement. And the same rule should apply to all of Europe,

he added

Volodymyr Zelenskyypresident

Right now, the most influential member of NATO seems to be Putin – because his whims have the power to block NATO decisions,

Zelensky said

Volodymyr Zelenskyypresident

No decisions about Ukraine without Ukraine. No decisions about Europe without Europe. Europe must have a seat at the table when decisions about Europe are being made,

Zelensky continued

Let’s be honest – now we can’t rule out the possibility that America might say ‘No’ to Europe on issues that threaten it. Many leaders have talked about Europe that needs its own military – an Army of Europe,

he said

Not once did he mention that America needs Europe at that table. That says a lot. The old days are over – when America supported Europe just because it always had,

Zelenskyy pointed out

I think one of the things that we can do right away is take 2,000 children that are either cancer children or in a very ill state, to Jordan as quickly as possible,

Abdullah said

I think let's wait until the Egyptians can come and present it to the president and not get ahead of us,

Abdullah said

Putin is gonna pocket this and ask for more,

Brett Bruen, director of global engagement under former President Barack Obama, told Fox News Digital

There’s no reason for us to be building brand new nuclear weapons, we already have so many,

Trump said Thursday at the White House

Pete Hegsethdefense Secretary

Any suggestion that President Trump is doing anything other than negotiating from a position of strength is, on its face, ahistorical and false."

But Hegseth shut down comments like these, and told NATO members in Brussels on Thursday

For far too long, the United States has minted pennies which literally cost us more than 2 cents,

We agreed to work together, very closely, including visiting each other’s Nations,
