President Volodymyr Zelensky announced that he would be willing to cede territory to Russia in order to end the Russia-Ukrainian/NATO war.
Zelenskyy added that the agreement would also recommend a “NATO umbrella” of protection for territory still under its control.
Zelensky made the comments in his first interview since President-elect Donald J. Trump won the 2024 presidential election. In his interview with Sky News, he made the remarks that he would be willing to cede ground to Russia in exchange for NATO membership.
It is likely that Russia will not agree to Zelensky’s demands.
