Zelensky’s trip to U.S. is defeat for Russia
Budrigannews.com – A senior aide to Volodymyr Zelenskiy stated that Zelenskiy’s “extremely significant” visit to the United States on Wednesday will disprove Russian claims that U.S.-Ukrainian relations are waning.
According to Mykhailo Podolyak, a political adviser, Zelenskiy’s trip, which included meetings with President Joe Biden, gave him a chance to talk about the real situation in Ukraine and the weapons that Kyiv needs to fight Russia and why it needs them.
After visiting troops on Tuesday in the frontline city of Bakhmut, site of some of the bloodiest fighting since Russia’s invasion of Ukraine on Feb. 24, Zelenskiy traveled to Washington.
“Mr. Zelenskiy’s official trip to the United States, which started right after he went to Bakhmut, the war’s hottest spot, is very symbolic. And extraordinarily significant,” Podolyak wrote to Reuters.
“First of all, the level of planned meetings and the visit itself are unambiguous evidence of the high level of trust between the countries. Second, the Russian side’s attempts to demonstrate an alleged growing cooling in our bilateral relations have finally come to an end as a result of this.
Podolyak said Russia’s depiction of U.S.- Ukrainian relations was “off by a long shot” to the real world.
“The US unequivocally upholds Ukraine,” he said.
According to Podolyak, Zelenskiy would be able to demonstrate to the political elite in the United States “the real scale” of the war, its true nature, and the significance of concluding it appropriately—that is, in the right way.
“Fourth – more and more weapons. It is essential to personally explain the reasons behind our need for particular weapons. “In particular, long-range missiles, the most recent missile defense systems, and armored vehicles,” he stated.
Podolyak stated that Zelenskiy would demonstrate why providing Ukraine with such weapons would not result in an escalation of the war but would significantly diminish Russia’s military capabilities.

He stated, “In my opinion, the visit will unquestionably activate and optimize key areas of military cooperation,” further mobilize bipartisan political support, and more clearly paint a picture of the future in the event that the war is not ended appropriately.
