1:25Now PlayingVolodymyr Zelenskiy said he doesn’t want to be remembered as the president who handed Ukrainian land to Russia.
Speaking on a panel moderated by Bloomberg Television’s Francine Lacqua on Friday, Zelenskiy said that he’s prepared to engage with Donald Trump’s initiative to end the war in Ukraine but he wants to agree on an approach with allies before confronting Vladimir Putin.
“I don’t want to be the person in history who helped Putin to occupy my country,” Zelenskiy told the audience at the Munich Security Conference.
Zelenskiy is coming under desperate pressure from the Trump White House this week after senior US officials said it’s not realistic to aspire to regaining parts of Ukraine captured by the Kremlin. Trump has also suggested Zelenskiy needs to call an election in order to renew his mandate, an idea that echoes talking points from the Kremlin.
As European nations scramble to formulate a response to the dramatic shifts in US policy this week, some officials said they should aim to agree security guarantees for Ukraine — and the role of the US — before they start negotiating with Putin.
