Trump: I seek to end the war in Ukraine.
According to Al Jazeera, British Prime Minister Keir Starmer met with US President Donald Trump at the White House during his visit to Washington.
Accordingly, after an official meeting, the two sides appeared before reporters and held a joint press conference with media members.
Donald Trump said about the meeting: The US-UK alliance is very strong, and Washington is working to deepen this alliance. I accepted the invitation of King Charles III of England to visit London.
He emphasized the topics of consultation between the leaders of the two countries: I informed Starmer about our efforts to stop the war in Ukraine. We are working hard to stop the war in Ukraine, and we have made progress in this regard.
Trump continued: With Zelensky’s visit to Washington on Friday, efforts to achieve peace will continue. We will seek to obtain minerals in Ukraine. European aid to Ukraine was in the form of loans, unlike what the Biden administration did. The US-Ukraine agreement will benefit both countries, and American taxpayers will get back the money spent in Ukraine.
The US President noted: We have made progress towards peace after talking with both sides of the conflict.
Peace in Ukraine requires negotiations, and we are seeking to achieve a peace agreement that will prevent the resumption of war in Eastern Europe. In this regard, there is a great opportunity to achieve a historic peace agreement and end the war between Ukraine and Russia.
Referring to the unwavering support of the US for the Zionist regime in its crimes against the Palestinians, Trump stated: I will continuously work to release the remaining prisoners, and I do not want to leave anyone behind.
The British Prime Minister also said at this news conference about the war in Ukraine: I welcome Trump’s commitment to ending the war in Ukraine.
The United States must ensure that Putin does not return to war and is committed to working together to achieve a just peace agreement in Ukraine. We will support Ukraine more than ever.
