Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has described the inauguration of Donald Trump as a hopeful day and says he believes the president can solve global challenges.
“President Trump is always decisive, and peace through his strong policies will be able to strengthen American leadership and achieve a long-term and just peace, which is a top priority,” Zelenskyy writes on X.
Trump said last year that the war between Russia and Ukraine was crying out to be settled, and that he would talk to both countries to avoid a third world war.
Ukraine has received massive military and political support from the United States and other NATO countries after Russia invaded the country in 2022.
