Zelenskyy declares the potential for stronger cooperation after Trump's election victory

Zelenskyy notes that Ukraine and the U.S. maintain cooperation at the team level, as demonstrated by recent discussions on all aspects of the Victory Plan held in New York and Washington, including with Congress and the White House.

The President of Ukraine announced this in his evening address on November 6.

Volodymyr Zelenskyy commented on the results of the US elections and congratulated Donald Trump on his convincing victory.

“Today is indeed a special day, and one piece of news is grabbing everyone's attention around the world. The absolutely convincing election results in America. A clear leadership of President Trump. I congratulate him on this victory,” he said.

Zelenskyy reminded it was extremely important for us in Ukraine and for all of Europe to consistently hear the words of the then-45th President of the United States about "peace through strength."

“And if this becomes the policy principle of the 47th President of the United States, America and the whole world will undoubtedly benefit from it. It is not without reason that Ronald Reagan is mentioned so often these days – people want confidence, they want freedom, a normal life. And for us, this means a life free from Russian aggression, and with a strong America, with a strong Ukraine, with strong allies. This year, we have already spoken with President Trump both by phone in July and in a face-to-face meeting in September; and those were good conversations,” the President said.
