“With, or without them…” Ukrainian soldiers ‘undeterred’ by President Trump’s plans to end war

Feb 22, 2025

Kyiv (Ukraine) Feb 21 (ANI): Peace talks this week between Russia and the US aimed at ending three years of war in Ukraine have not impressed front-line Ukrainian troops, who see no quick end to the fighting if Kyiv is left out of negotiations. Clutching an assault rifle, an infantryman recalled Ukraine's fierce resistance in the first weeks of Russia's February 2022 invasion, before Western support poured in, and suggested his country could do it again if needed. Another soldier, was equally dismissive of the Russian-U.S. talks held in Saudi Arabia and said he still plans to take the fight to the enemy when he returns to the front.
