Zelensky Dares Putin | Refuses to Cede Donbas to Russia | Warns Trump ‘It will start a 3rd War’ [Video]

Zelensky Dares Putin | Refuses to Cede Donbas to Russia | Warns Trump ‘It will start a 3rd War’

Ahead of the Trump–Putin summit in Alaska, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has firmly rejected any withdrawal from Donbas, warning it would allow Russia to launch a “third war” in Ukraine. He insists ceding territory would expose cities like Dnipro, Zaporizhzhia, and Kharkiv to occupation. While Putin is expected to push for Ukrainian withdrawal, Zelensky seeks EU security guarantees and ongoing Western support. U.S. officials say Trump aims to eventually broker direct talks, but no ceasefire proposal so far assures Ukraine’s long-term safety. #Zelensky #Putin #Trump #Donbas #Ukraine #Russia #UkraineWar #UkraineRussia #Geopolitics #SecurityGuarantees #EU #USPolitics #PeaceTalks #VolodymyrZelensky #TrumpPutin #Diplomacy #WarWarning #UkraineStrong #UkraineNews #DonbasWar #RussiaUkraineConflict #BreakingNews #UkraineDefense #PutinDemands #GlobalPolitics #WorldNews #SummitTalks #UkraineFrontline #NoCeasefire #MilitaryTensions #UkrainePride Also Read President Trump to Push Putin for Peace in Ukraine During Alaska Meeting :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/president-trump-to-push-putin-for-peace-in-ukraine-during-alaska-meeting-7828161.html?ref=DMDesc Why Is Trump Really Upset With India?
