Zelensky claims he wants peace deal in 2025

Zelensky peace deal news

An agreement should come with security guarantees from Kiev’s Western backers, the Ukrainian leader has stressed.

Ukrainian leader Vladimir Zelensky has expressed his desire to secure a peace agreement with Russia within the year, but emphasized that Kiev requires strong security guarantees from Western backers as key to any deal. He made the remarks during an interview with Italian broadcaster Rai News 24, released on Friday.

Zelensky has long insisted that Kiev needs firm security assurances to achieve long-term peace, naming membership of NATO as the best option. Moscow, however, has argued that Ukraine’s NATO aspirations were among the root causes of the conflict, and maintains that any settlement must result in the country’s neutrality, demilitarization, and denazification.

“It is our wish to get [security] guarantees and to end the war this year, we will do anything for this,” Zelensky said. He mentioned the urgency of restoring peace, claiming that Ukraine wants it “more than anyone else” because “we lose more than everyone else, especially with regard to people.” However, he insisted that security guarantees must come first.

“This is for the protection of Ukraine… and the whole of Europe… So that Russia will not return again with aggression,” Zelensky said. He also accused Russian President Vladimir Putin of aiming to destroy Ukraine, a charge Moscow has brushed aside as ridiculous.

Zelensky stated he is looking forward to US President-elect Donald Trump’s return to office, as he expects him to help bring the conflict to an end.

“Trump will be very important in [peace talks] mediation. His team has already started contacts,” Zelensky explained. Trump has often claimed he can end the conflict within 24 hours. However, speaking from his Mar-a-Lago estate in Florida earlier this week, the president-elect said it might take up to six months after taking office to help Moscow and Kiev reach a deal. Trump has not provided specifics on how he would achieve a settlement, though reports suggest his team is considering freezing the current battle lines.

Zelensky has previously questioned Trump’s claims about ending the conflict swiftly, arguing that “there are no people today in the world who could just have a word with Putin and end the war.” He also opposed Trump’s reported plans to persuade Kiev to cede claims to its former territories, insisting that Ukraine’s territorial integrity should be part of any settlement.

Moscow has long stated it is open to talks but maintained that any deal must begin with Ukraine ceasing military operations and acknowledging the “territorial reality” that it will not regain control of regions that chose to join Russia. Moscow has also rejected the idea of a temporary truce, arguing that freezing the conflict would allow Kiev to regroup and prepare for further hostilities.

  1. The little Zionist clown-turned-Ukrainian President can hand himself in for a War Crimes Tribunal!
    How’s that for a ‘peace proposal’???
    Why the ICC and ICJ haven’t prosecuted him for genocide, war crimes, forced slavery, human (& child) trafficking and lethal bio-labs producing biological weapons of mass destruction questions the effectiveness of these ‘International Courts of Justice’ systems, and the fact that the U.N. is strangely quiet about the ongoing J3wi$h-led wars in the Ukraine and Palestine.
    The NATO Nations continue to fund a war that has bankrupted them all, and have no positive outcome for anyone, except the 1% of the parties of *George Soros (aka *Georg Schwartz, a Talmudic J3w..), former Nazi and genocide supporter *Klaus Schwab (* a Zionist..), and ‘Kill’ Gates (who’s parents were supportive of eugenics, just as Kill is…)
    Of course, these demonic entities wouldn’t be where they are today except for the complicity of those people who are in the 1% ‘Club’ and have billions of dollars of their own to support Zionism at all levels with their political infiltrations, campaign contributions, and vectored services designed to encroach and increase their influence and power on many levels, usually at the expense of a customer base or taxpayers from different nations., the various exempt NGO’s and the institution of platformed usury thru the Central Banking Systems.
    Palestine and the Ukraine are just dry runs by the Zionists on what they have planned fro the rest of the world!

    • I would add the rol of larry fink. As if i may believe what has already published on the subject, blackrock ” possess” half of more of Ukraine. Blackrock also ” possess” much of european State debts. So no wonder that european governments are blackmailed ( it is only a supposition) into financing this war through its taxpayers.
      Strange that european politicians agreed to finance a war that does not concern most of european countries, countries now very near bankrupcy
