Zelensky challenges Trump's ability to bring peace to Ukraine amidst Putin's influence

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky invited former US President Donald Trump to visit Ukraine and disputed Trump's claim that he could end Russia's war against Ukraine within 24 hours. Zelensky praised President Joe Biden for his visit earlier this year and invited Trump to see the scale of Russia's invasion for himself. Ukraine's top commander warned that the war had reached a stalemate, with Russia occupying nearly one-fifth of Ukraine. Zelensky argued that Ukraine's fight against Russia is in the US' national security interests and urged Congress to approve further military aid. He rejected the idea of peace talks with terrorists, stating that their word is untrustworthy.
