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.

    Meh who cares what he says now. Trump will negotiate the deal with Putin and then somebody will let Zelensky know what it is. Just like it happened for South Korea.

        He totally will. Of course Ukraine can choose to continue on fighting without US support. That prolly won’t be very productive. At least not in terms of recovery of land, but they can delay total loss by at least a few years if they choose this.
