image for Zelenskyy: Ukraine now has cards and everyone understands that

President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has said that Ukraine now "has cards" thanks to the Ukrainian military and the country's defence production that has expanded since the beginning of the full-scale invasion.

Details: In the interview, Zelenskyy commented on the fact that the US had turned to Ukraine rather than to France or Germany and also "turned down the UK's aircraft carrier".

Quote: "Now it's because of our soldiers, great people and a lot of different production which we increased from the very beginning of the [full-scale] war.

"The Americans asked us and, of course, I'm very proud that we can help American partners.".

Details: Zelenskyy added that Ukraine has "cards" that it had not previously shown.

He didn't – he didn't have the cards from Day 1 [of Russia's full-scale invasion – ed.].".

On 20 February 2025, Trump said that Russia "has the cards" in potential peace talks to end the war, as Russia "has taken a lot of territory". »
