The president of Ukraine was reassured by what he heard from the president-elect. “Nothing Zelensky and his aides heard from Trump and his team was alarming or made us feel like Ukraine would be the one paying the price,” a source told Axios.
On victory day, Zelensky congratulated Trump and highlighted the alliance between the countries. “I remember our big meeting with President Trump in September when we discussed in detail the Ukraine-US strategic partnership, the Victory Plan and ways to end Russian aggression against Ukraine,” he wrote.
