Ukrainians have rallied behind Volodymyr Zelenskyy after his mauling on Friday in the White House, and have accused Donald Trump and the US vice-president, JD Vance, of deliberately and cynically “starting a brawl.” Zelenskyy thanked the American people and leadership and voiced hope for “strong relations.”
-
Zelenskyy on Saturday arrived in London ahead of a summit on Sunday organized by British prime minister Keir Starmer with other European leaders. The summit will also include leaders from France, Germany, Denmark, Italy, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Spain, Turkey, Finland, Sweden, Czechia and Romania, as well as the NATO secretary-general and the presidents of the European Commission and European Council.

Starmer “restated his determination to finding a path that ends Russia’s illegal war” when he met Zelensky at Downing Street on Saturday, No 10 has said. Giving a readout of the two leaders’ meeting, a Downing Street spokesperson said: “The Prime Minister reiterated his unwavering support for Ukraine, adding that the UK will always stand with them, for as long as it takes.”

The Nato secretary general, Mark Rutte, said yesterday’s fracas between Trump and Zelenskyy was “unfortunate” and they should repair their relationship. “I have been twice on the phone now with President Zelenskyy. I told him this, we need to stick together, the United States, Ukraine and Europe, to bring Ukraine to a durable peace,” said Rutte.

The US national security adviser, Mike Waltz, has given Fox News a first-person account of the moment he told a “still argumentative” Zelenskyy it was time to leave the White House. Waltz said he told Zelenskyy: “Time is not on your side here. Time is not on your side on the battlefield. Time is not on your side in terms of the world situation, and, most importantly, US aid and the taxpayers’ tolerance is not unlimited.”
-
The Russian foreign ministry spokesperson, Maria Zakharova, said Zelenskyy’s visit to Washington was Kyiv’s diplomatic failure, and that the Ukrainian president rejected peace, and was obsessed with continuing the war….
- Senior US officials are suggesting that the United States may cut all aid to Ukraine, although US President Donald Trump has not indicated any such intention. Cutting the current flow of aid to Ukraine would directly undermine President Trump’s stated goal of achieving a sustainable peace in Ukraine.
- Ukrainian forces enabled by essential US assistance are inflicting unsustainable losses on Russian forces while holding them to marginal gains. This situation, combined with the severe challenges Russia will face in 2025, offers the US great leverage in peace negotiations. A suspension of ongoing US military assistance to Ukraine would encourage Russian President Vladimir Putin to continue to increase his demands and fuel his conviction that he can achieve total victory through war.
- Curtailing aid to Ukraine would risk diminishing US influence in the world and emboldening US adversaries.
- Putin, not Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, remains the main obstacle to a lasting peace agreement on Ukraine.
- The Kremlin launched another informational effort intended to discourage additional US and European military assistance to Ukraine by claiming that Russia has won the war in Ukraine.
- European countries remain committed to supporting the Ukrainian military and defense industry, however, amid preparations for a European defense summit about Ukraine on March 2.
- Ukrainian forces recently advanced near Toretsk and Russian forces recently advanced near Velyka Novosilka.
- The Russian Ministry of Defense (MoD) continues to recruit medically unfit soldiers in an effort to address personnel shortages.
