“We will not force”: the White House reacted to Trump’s peace plan for Ukraine
Today, during the briefing, the speaker of the White House, John Kirby stated that the United States of America will not make any decisions regarding Ukraine without the participation and consent of the Kyiv government and President Volodymyr Zelenskyi. According to him, the administration of President Joe Biden supports a strong position that any agreements or negotiations must be agreed with the Ukrainian side.
“Unlike others, President Biden believes that any decisions about negotiations, frankly, should be made by President Zelenskyi and Ukraine. We will not force Ukraine to cede its territory, because we understand: if Putin is allowed to conquer Ukraine and subjugate its people, any part of its people, the consequences will be seriousJohn Kirb said.
He also emphasized that making decisions about Ukraine’s future is solely its business, and Washington is not going to interfere in the internal affairs of other countries. At the same time, a representative of the White House expressed concern about the possible consequences that the expansion of Putin and other authoritarian leaders could have for the world.
Recently, it became known that several countries have formed a coalition to support Ukraine in its defense actions, which indicates international support for the country in the context of the escalation of the conflict.
