The President is fighting for our country, for everyone defending a just and lasting peace. I stand with a leader who defends the interests of our heroic people—in every situation. Period.

We are grateful to those who stand with us, who understand that Ukraine is not just a point on the map—it’s Minas Tirith, holding back the forces of evil.

Our deepest thanks to the American people—your support brings us closer to the day when this war is just a memory.

Zelensky:

Thank you America, thank you for your support, thank you for this visit. Thank you Trump, Congress, and the American people.

Ukraine needs just and lasting peace, and we are working exactly for that.
