In an interview with Bloomberg News Editor-in-Chief John Micklethwait, Zelenskiy said that his European allies don’t have enough soldiers to pose a realistic deterrent to President Vladimir Putin and any other solution would risk opening up divisions within the NATO alliance.
The 46-year-old Ukrainian leader is attempting to lock in support from his most important ally as the diplomatic push to halt the fighting in his country gathers pace. He bristled at the idea, floated Tuesday, that the military backing of his European allies would suffice.
“It can’t be without the United States,” Zelenskiy told Bloomberg Wednesday at the World Economic Forum in Davos. “Even if some European friends think it can be, no it can’t be. Nobody will risk without the United States.”
As Trump reaches out to Putin, Zelenskiy is trying to persuade China too to use its influence on Russia to help end the fighting, though he expressed frustration that he hasn’t managed to speak more often to President Xi Jinping.
