Finnish President Stubb:

Have faith, Ukraine is going to win this war.

NEW: The meeting between Zelensky and Trump has begun.

Q: Is it a problem that Trump often returns to the view that Zelensky is the blockage, not Putin?

Rutte: I don’t think that’s fair, because he has been very critical of Putin in many interviews.

I think he wants this done. He wants to end a meat grinder and I’m with him on this.

U.S. Envoy on Syria Tom Barrack:

We were honored to meet with Mazloum Abdi and Ilham Ahmed.

The United States and all parties reaffirmed their commitment to advancing the January 18 integration agreement and agreed that fully upholding the ceasefire is the essential first step toward confidence-building and lasting stability.

Trump on his Greenland deal:

Essentially, it’s total access. There’s no end — there’s no time limit...

We're going to have all military access that we want... We’re going to not have to pay anything, other than the fact that we are building the Golden Dome.

Trump on NATO:

We have never needed them. We have never asked anything of them.

You know they say they sent troops to Afghanistan, and they did.

They stayed a little back, little off the frontlines.

Maria Bartiromo: European companies hold trillions of stocks and bonds from the US. Do you worry they'll sell those in retaliation?

Trump: No. If they do they do. If that happened, there'd be big retaliation on our part and we have all the cards.

Trump after his meeting with Zelensky:

We hope it is going to end, a lot of people are getting killed.

FIFA President Gianni Infantino: (2022 FIFA World Cup)

For the first time in history, no Brit was arrested during a World Cup.

Imagine! This is something really special.

Trump:

I think the meeting with Zelensky good.

Donald Trump has a new title listed on Wikipedia:

“Chairman of the Board of Peace.”

Zelensky:

Just last year, here in Davos, I ended my speech with the words, “Europe needs to know how to defend itself.”

A year has passed, and nothing has changed.

Zelensky:

Everyone gave attention to Greenland, and it is clear most leaders are not sure what to do about it.

It seems like everyone is just waiting for America to cool down on this topic, hoping it will pass away.

But what if it will not—what then?

Zelensky:

There was so much talk about the protests in Iran, but they drowned in blood.

The world has not helped enough the Iranian people; it has stood aside.

By the time politicians started forming positions, the Ayatollah had already killed thousands.

What will Iran become after this bloodshed? If the regime survives, it sends a clear signal to every bully: kill enough people and you stay in power.

Zelensky:

Maduro is on trial in New York, sorry but Putin is not on trial?

Zelensky:

Why can Trump stop tankers from the shadow fleet and seize oil, but Europe does not?

Zelensky:

Russian oil is being transported right along Europe’s shores, and that oil is funding the war against Ukraine. This directly contributes to destabilizing Europe.

Russian oil must be stopped, confiscated, and sold for Europe’s benefit. Why not? If Putin has no money, there is no war. If Europe has the resources, it can protect its people.

Zelensky:

Today, Europe relies mainly on the belief that if danger comes, NATO will act. But no one has ever really seen the alliance tested in full.

If Putin decided to take Lithuania or strike Poland, who would respond?

NATO exists thanks to the belief that the United States will act — that it will not stand aside and will help. But what if it does not?

Zelensky:

Europe must learn how to defend itself. Sending 14 or 40 soldiers to Greenland — what is that meant to achieve? What message does that send to Putin? To China? And perhaps most importantly, what message does it send to Denmark?

Zelensky on Greenland:

We know what to do if Russian warships go near Greenland, Ukraine can help with that.

They can sink near Greenland just as they do near Crimea.
