Zelensky refuses to recognize the practical reality of this war. It has been going on for years, his countrymen are dying, and the people who have been funding this effort — the American people — are sick and tired of footing this bill.

1. Slovakia will not provide financial or military support to Ukraine but respects other nations' decisions.

2. Fico criticized the "peace through strength" strategy, arguing Ukraine cannot negotiate from military power.

3. Slovakia urges an immediate ceasefire at the upcoming EU summit, though Zelensky and many EU states oppose it.

4. Slovakia demands the reopening of Russian gas transit through Ukraine to Western Europe, stating Ukraine is worsening the situation by consuming European gas.

5. If alternative views on ending the war aren’t considered, the EU may struggle to reach a consensus.

6. Slovakia supports strengthening Europe’s defense capabilities.

I don't know if he [Trump] needs an apology. He needs Zelensky to recognize the situation that he's in.

I mean, all Zelensky had to do today was put on a tie, show up, smile, say 'thank you,' sign the papers, and have lunch. That‘s it. And he couldn‘t do that.

Many expected Poroshenko to criticize Zelensky now.

But no that's not what Ukraine needs right now not criticism but unity.
