volodymyr zelenskyy came here to washington to shore up u.s. support, but cbs's weijia jiang reports he finds himself right in the middle of the presidential campaign. >> reporter: two presidential nominees. two starkly different approaches to handling the ukraine war. >> my support for the people of ukraine is unwavering. >> ukraine is gone. it's not ukraine. anymore. >> reporter: former president trump this week criticized the ukrainians for not cutting a deal with russian president vladimir putin to end the war. today, vice president harris met with president zelenskyy and said the focus should be on stopping putin. >> if we allow aggressors like putin to take land with impunity, they keep going. >> reporter: the administration announced more security assistance to ukraine and promised zelenskyy additional funds before the end of president biden's term, easing concerns that trump could cut the money off if he wins. >> we have to keep pressure on russia to stop the war and to make truly, lasting, and just peace. >> reporter: trump said he wil

yevgeny, volodymyr zelenskyi met with donald trump before the start of the meeting, zelenskyi expressed interlocutor also believes that the war in ukraine should be stopped, and putin cannot win, and trump said that he will try to work as he said, with both sides to resolve the conflict. let's listen to what trump and zelensky said. we have a very good relationship, and i also have a very good relationship, as you know, with president putin, and i think if i win, we will resolve this very quickly. i hope we have a better relationship with you. but you know it takes two to tango. we are going to have a good meeting today, i think the fact that we are here today is a very good sign. well, here is mr. evgeny. trump says that he has a good relationship with zelensky and with putin, and zelensky tells him, after all, i i hope that i know we will have a better relationship, he says about tango and tango is for two, that is, somehow it doesn't work, he wants to cooperate with two, he talks about tango for two, what is actually happening now in trump's election campaign , why are these swings t

i will remind you that these are the first words that trump said to zelenskyi, and zelenskyi trump during the meeting, and before this meeting with trump, zelenskyi also met with the candidate for the presidency of the united states of america. kamala harris, vice-president of the democratic party, the ukrainian president said on social networks that he shared with her the details of the victory plan, but we will talk about that later, but now we stop at the meeting with trump and zelenskyi, tatyana is already in touch with us vorozhko, this is the senior editor of the ukrainian voice of america service, tatyana, i congratulate you, i congratulate you, please tell me about the first statements and maybe the first impressions after what i managed to see and hear at this meeting between zelenskyi and trump, as i understand it, it was a kind of pre-meeting with the media, further behind closed doors... there will be the main part of the conversation, yes, well, in fact, there will be more statements after the conversation no, obviously, it was literally two minutes of the leaders coming out,

more than 300 rockets and 40 rockets were also used, president volodymyr zelenskyi said.t. the eastern regions of zaporozhye, kharkiv and sumy were affected. the head of state once again called on the western partners to stop terror and to unite in order to put pressure on russia. and i urge you to unite to help our army, since the espresso tv channel and the vesna charitable fund have opened fundraising for the purchase of modern drones and electronic warfare systems for the third separate assault, 110th and 47th brigades of the armed forces of of ukraine. the defenders in the donetsk direction every day hold back enemy attacks, defend our freedom and future. the brigades urgently need drones and modern means of countering enemy drones. our goal is uah 3.5 million. 2,200,000 already in the account, join using the qr code you see on the screen now. good health, dear ukrainians, we are fighters of the first assault battalion, the third separate of the assault brigade, who will defend our native land on the front lines, we urgently need your help. we need means of radio-ele

president zelenskyy has been to meet both sides of the house.gressional leadership today was where he started his day in washington. and over the last few hours we have seen pictures of him in conversation with president biden. the meat of that discussion, as we have been telling you, is the victory plan, this document that is a closely guarded document for obvious reasons. there are probably state secrets involved in it. but there is a semblance of a plan from the ukrainian perspective on how they would go about winning the war. the victory plan, we are told, will be presented to kamala harris in the next hour. i thin we have some reaction from president zelenskyy just at the beginning of the meeting with president biden paid let me play that to you. >> to date we have a new support package. it will be a great help. with president biden's plan of victory, we will coordinate positions and our teams will work together to ensure implementation of our future steps. today, in the morning i met with both the senate and the house. thank you for your u

zelenskyy also attacking trump's running mate, senator j.d. vance as "too radical" for floating a plan that would allow russia to keep the ukrainian territory it has captured, and block ukraine from joining nato. today, harris saying that's exactly what vladimir putin wants. >> these proposals are the same of those of putin, and let us be clear, they are not proposals for peace. instead, they are proposals for surrender, which is dangerous and unacceptable. >> reporter: and now trump taking aim at zelenskyy, saying he's the one who refuses to end the war by not making concessions to russia. >> we continue to give billions of dollars to a man who refused to make a deal, zelenskyy. there was no deal that he could have made that wouldn't have been better than the situation you have right now. >> reporter: and trump just announcing he will be meeting with zelenskyy tomorrow morning at trump tower. meanwhile, kamala harris will be here in battleground arizona, focusing on immigration. of course, another top issue for voters, david. >> david: visiti

volodymyr zelenskyi said this during his speech at the un general assembly. president of ukraine warned about the nuclear danger posed by the russian federation, called on world leaders to support ukraine. true and just peace, and warned countries, who do not support the ukrainian vision, you do not, you will not strengthen your power at the expense of ukraine, - he said. we talk in more detail about the results of zelensky's speech with our un correspondent iryna solomko. and i congratulate you, irina. so, what were the main points of volodymyr zelenskyi's speech at the un general assembly? yes, maria, this is actually the third such performance at such a high point in may. high platform in this high week of the general assembly, the first speech of the president, he was at the peace summit, yesterday there was a meeting of the security council dedicated specifically to ukraine, which was attended by presidents, ministers of foreign affairs, and various partner countries and members of the security council, and also today the president spoke at the general a

, and he said this during the meeting with zelenskyi, and he said this after meeting with zelenskyi, so what zelenskyi can do to change this, this pre-election position of his, but nothing, that is, the problem, that is, the problem in essence, well , again, in my opinion, not even in them, but the problem in him, that is, in trump, in essence, it was trump who made all this mess, and by the way, trump basically said something that, in principle, does not fit on his head, and that is... far from any diplomatic etiquette, even despite the fact that it is there, relatively speaking, something could offend, but what are the phrases worth, there is no ukraine there, it is almost there destroyed, millions of people died in ukraine, destroyed, destroyed civilization, destroyed cities, in fact he said that there is no such country, well, i’m sorry, it was just a stream of lies, a stream of fakes and... and these things are far away in general from any protocol, even, well, i am silent about diplomatic protocol, from any even the adequacy of running a political campaign, why, well, if trump

this was volodymyr zelenskyy's third speech during the full-scale invasion. mr.ymyr, how many more such speeches should there be, well, these speeches are about nothing. i understand the first speech in... in the 22nd year, the world needs to be consolidated, heard the president of ukraine, who consolidates the world in support of ukraine. 22nd year, 23rd year, well, even more, you have to work a little there, 24th year, address from this high platform again the same things that you said in the 22nd, in the 23rd, and the result is the same none, well, here i agree that, by and large, such a result, which we would like to expect, will not happen. it was not there in the past years, although the diplomats say that there are still a number of countries there, there will be a vote for the resolution, maybe in the near future, we are there and we will count these votes, if we compare it with the previous resolutions, it is , so to speak, well, also a certain distribution of forces in the world, and therefore we need to go, we need to speak, we need to meet, we need to

, and he said it during the meeting with zelenskyi, and he said it after the meeting with zelenskyi,at can zelenskyi do to change this, this... his pre-election position, and nothing, that is, the problem, that is, the problem in essence, well , again, in my opinion, not even in them, but the problem in him, that is, in trump, in fact, it was trump who brewed this whole mess, and to things, trump basically said something that in principle does not fit into the head, and that in general is far from any diplomatic etiquette, not even taking into account the fact that, relatively speaking, something could have offended him there, but what is it worth? there is no phrase ukraine, it is almost destroyed, millions of people died in ukraine, destroyed, destroyed civilization, destroyed cities, in fact they blame, there is no, well , i apologize, it was just a stream of lies, a stream of fakes, and and and these things, they far from any protocol at all, even, well, i’m not talking about diplomatic protocol, from any even the adequacy of running a political campaign, why, well, if trump know

on mine view, the visit is going as expected by zelenskyi. it's a tough and stressful time because of the us election, but so far he's been doing well with the trip and he'll be able to get $8 billion in aid for ukraine from the us as soon as possible. but now we are in a position where the us is deciding what to do next. in other words, zelensky provided what was needed for ukraine to last. say, by the beginning of summer, next july. the problem is that it will not happen in six months, but in seven or eight months, where will the help come from? it is that that the ukrainian president does not control, he is a world leader, but he does not control military production, which puts him in a very difficult situation. i think that in general the american people are on the side of ukraine, they want ukraine to win the war. the problem is that they also want to be able to allow. products, and they see that there's tension between the two countries, or they think there's tension between them, i don't think there is, but it's become a company issue,

contrary, it will be cool that we demined everything, people will not die, and now you look back at zelenskyi's old promises to demine everything, to solve it diplomatically with russia, to make a preliminary peace plan, and we understand what it turned into. that is why we wanted to talk about all these peace plans, and if zelensky himself is afraid, then look, he has new promising communication advisors there, he appointed such an advisor there, who in 2010 advised doritiya chi. to the ukrainians, to the ukrainian authorities, why is it worth it to disband the armed forces of ukraine, then it is obvious that the adviser should not buy alcohol in godwines, by the way, our colleagues often see him there, but to go out and talk a little, but what kind of peace plan did bankova prepare for us, so that society would prepare and so that society would understand , and what awaits us next with this commander-in-chief who wants, let’s say... yes: the preservation of a certain territory under the control of ukraine to be presented as a comprehensive victory, a fantastic victory, and i wonder how he wil

is an espresso interview, and today it's about that. the visit of ukrainian president volodymyr zelenskyi to the united states of america is long enough visit, he arrived there as early as sunday evening, is still there, now at this very moment he is meeting with the 45th president of the united states of america, donald trump. so, who did he meet with, what did he talk about, and what were the pros and cons of this visit. i will talk about this and other things with my guest today, volodymyr horbach, executive director of the institute for the transformation of northern eurasia. mr. volodymyr, i congratulate you, glory to ukraine. good day, glory to the heroes. and mr. volodymyr, today i correctly read northern eurasia, specifically eurasia, no korea, and eurasia? eurasia, because last time i introduced mr. volodymyr, as the director of the institute for the transformation of northern europe, here it is completely different, namely eurasia, because russia must be included in the transformation, maybe someday we will transform it, but today is not about that, today, as i have already said

you rightly mentioned these statements by zelenskyi about...t on february 19 he had a speech in munich at the security conference, you can quote every munich security conference with the participation of zelenskyi, because at one, by the way, in in the 20th year , he said that i don't have time to think strategically, when a journalist asked if i did do you have any strategies regarding the fact that the russian federation is preparing attacks there as early as 2020. he was asked, directly a few days before the full-scale invasion , he told in munich that the russians are also people and i do not believe that they will go to war against us. i am sure that zelensky hoped until the last that if russians laugh at his tv series "matchmakers". if the russians ever went there to watch the movie "love in the big city" with the participation of volodymyr zelenskyi, they will refuse to conquer ukraine, but in fact, it's not... that's how you can watch the series matchmaker on a tablet, and with the other hand kill and torture ukrainian women who fell in

did not have a plan a, but the military had a plan a, or how should we perceive zelenskyi’s statement are already living in plan b, and they say that the plan is something that our allies did not fulfill, i understand, you know, i can not very professional from a journalistic point of view, but i listen less and less to what volodymyr zelensky says, because i have less and less, well, more and more precise impression that - he says completely different things that contradict each other, and you know, it's not even the same story that, for example, there there is some kind of system, he says one thing for some, and another for others, i will not speculate on the adequacy or inadequacy of this person, but to be honest, well... you don't have to think of something to blurt out during the war plan a, plan b, well, you understand, i'm saying, in principle, this person never had any plans, he is a man of the moment, he is a man of hype, he is a man of some momentary decisions, momentary there are some hyped ones there, he has basically ruled for five years and they, by the way, once even th

the content of zelenskyi's plan will also be announced. a new stage of decolonization. hundreds of settlements received new names without imperial narratives. but there are exceptions. how the parliament became the weakest link in the process of toponymy purification of ukraine. servants flee abroad. people's deputy andrii odarchenko, accused of the attempt bribery of management. the recovery agency is wanted, why does the border remain transparent for the fugitive deputies? that's all and not only. we will talk for the next 45 minutes, i remind you that we are working live on the channel, as well as on our platforms in youtube and facebook, for those who are currently watching us live on these platforms, please subscribe to our pages, be sure like this video so that it is trending on youtube and facebook, and take part in our survey, today we ask you about this, do you take the kremlin's nuclear threats seriously, yes no on youtube everything to... simple and unambiguous answers, if you have answers that go beyond unambiguous answers, please write in the comments below

, and he said it during the meeting with zelenskyi, and he said it after the meeting with zelenskyi,o what can zelenskyi do to change this, this pre-election position of his, but nothing. that is, the problem, that is, the problem in essence, well, again, in my opinion, not even in them, but the problem in him, that is, in trump, in fact , it was trump who brewed this whole mess, and by the way, trump spoke in essence such that, in principle , it does not go to the head, and which is generally far from any diplomatic etiquette, even despite the fact that, relatively speaking, something could have offended him there, but for what the phrases are worth, there is no ukraine there. it is almost destroyed, millions of people died in ukraine, destroyed, destroyed civilization, destroyed cities, in fact he said that there is no such country, well, i’m sorry, it was just a stream of lies, a stream of fakes, and these things are far away at all from any protocol, even, well, i’m not talking about diplomatic protocol, from any even the adequacy of flight management... campaign, well, why, well

we saw zelenskyy refer to j.d.cal on the russia/ukraine issue, and this official tells me they believe that zelenskyy intends to, in the words of this official, interfere in this election. it's not clear exactly what that means, but they said they believe that democrats will continue to prioritize ample u.s. financial backing of ukraine into 2025 and beyond. and as we heard from donald trump just yesterday on that campaign stage, he questioned whether that was a good investment, by calling zelenskyy one of the greatest salesmen on earth, and saying that russia had beat the likes of napoleon and hitler, and what they do is they fight, seemingly showing reticense. >> meantime, yamiche, the vice president will be in pittsburgh today as she's trying to chip away at trump's lead in the polls on the economy. what does she have planned? >> reporter: that's right. well, vice president harris is set to deliver a major economic speech, campaign aides tell me this is focused on voters and making sure they understand that the

vance, as volodymyr zelenskyi called his statements by j.d. about ukraine, that we must surrender our territories at some point, although i, as a ukrainian, do not agree with this , of course, but volodymyr zelenskyi v on the air of the american tv channel called too radical statements, he did not like it, if in the first case during. in the case of volodymyr zelenskyi's visit to the military plant with senators, democrats, it was not liked primarily by the trumpists, who are represented in the house of representatives, as well as in the senate of the congress of the united states of america, and there even one of the leaders, one of the committees of the house of representatives even initiated the investigation, but again he is part of this group of trumpists, they are not i liked it, the trumpists want... why, because they consider it an influence on the election campaign in the united states of america, so in the second case, when volodymyr zelenskyi called the statements of jaydy vance too radical, i already looked for not even the trumpis

president of ukraine volodymyr zelenskyi.ed states for providing the most important means to protect our people. additional patriot air defense battery, other means of air defense and interceptors, drones, long -range missiles and ammunition of the air-to-ground class, as well as funds for strengthening the defense and industrial base of ukraine. we have always valued strong bipartisan support in the united states and among americans in ukraine's just cause of victory over russian aggression. zelensky himself brought a plan for the victory of ukraine to the united states and expects the support of this plan from his american colleague joe biden. the ukrainian president will show it to the american leader today during a meeting in washington, they wrote earlier can, but will it find support? the wall street journal writes that the us is allegedly not impressed with ukraine's victory plan. they said that kyiv's proposal focused only on weapons. and relaxed restrictions on ranged shots. western officials familiar with the detail

president zelenskyy homes that as well.her or president biden for that matter in office as the two of them support his defense of this country against russian aggression while donald trump has made it pretty clear that he does not. yesterday going out and insulting president zelenskyy saying he had spoken multiple times to vladimir putin and that the war would never have happened if he were still president. also, not saying clearly ever that he wants ukraine to win this war. asked multiple times, refusing to give an answer. let's bring in our correspondent who is back with us. so he met with president biden today. this is vp that he spoke with. what are the headlines to you? >> reporter: this was the seventh time that vice president harris has met with the ukrainian president volodymyr zelenskyy. she talked about the last time they spoke in switzerland in july very shortly before president biden announced he was dropping out of that race and she talked about this continued commitment that she has to continuing the president

ukrainian president volodymyr zelenskyy, hopefully not the last at this meeting, volodymyr zelenskyy presented his own plan for the victory of ukraine, also talked about the situation on the battlefield, in particular the operation in kursk region, and garis zelenskyy also discussed ways to achieve a just peace based on the principles of the un charter, and of course, before this meeting, kamela garis made public remarks in which she emphasized that she will... will continue to support ukraine without change and said that she will work to ensure that ukraine wins. unusually for this format, kamela harris also criticized her political opponent , donald trump. in particular, she did not call him by name, but criticized his previous remarks in which he said that even if ukraine has to cede some territory. it will still be better agreement than continued war. she said that such offers are essentially an offer of surrender, which is unacceptable. later, donald trump also responded to this criticism in a conversation with journalists. let's actually listen to the words of presidential cand

president zelenskyy outlined his so-called victory plan to end the war with russia. biden announced around $8 billion of military assistance for ukraine which includes a new air defense system and long-range weapons. they spoke briefly after the meeting, doubling down on the u.s.-ukraine partnership. >> let me be clear, russia will not prevail. russia will not prevail. ukraine will prevail and we will continue to send buy you every step of the way. >> today, we have a new support package. this will be great help and the victory. we are prepared to talk about details. sumi: president zelenskyy initially planned to also meet with donald trump during his trip but that has since been stood down following president zelenskyy's visit to an arms factory in has a venue where he was joined by multiple democratic lawmakers. this drew ire from republican lawmakers, particularly the speaker of the house who said mr. zelenskyy's visit was designed to help democrats and that it amounted to election interference. speaker johnson has demanded ukraine fire its ambassador to the u.s..

. >>> and back home, vice president harris meeting with ukrainian president zelenskyy at the white house. and former president trump saying he'll meet with zelenskyy tomorrow as he urges him to cut a deal to end the war with russia. here is garrett haake. >> reporter: tonight, vice president harris standing side by side with ukraine's president zelenskyy. >> my support for the people of ukraine is unwavering. >> reporter: accusing former president trump of wanting ukraine to surrender. >> there are some in my country who would instead force ukraine to give up large parts of its sovereign territory. they are not proposals for peace. instead, they are proposals for surrender. >> reporter: late today, trump responding. >> it's not a surrender. what my strategy is to save lives. i'll meet with president zelenskyy and we'll see what happens, but i believe i can work that out. >> reporter: and saying he can still work with iran, despite his campaign saying u.s. intel briefed him on iranian assassination threats. trump pulled out of the iran nuclear deal in 2018. would you try to make a deal wi

zelenskyi z biden, which is to be held here in washington. we, we are waiting for the results, of course, of this meeting, because there president zelensky will present the plan for the victory of ukraine. throughout our program, we will have two guests, valentina lyvaichenko, the former head of the security service of ukraine and the people's dep...

zelenskyi.re very active and i was personally present at the last peace summit in switzerland. i am very glad that those who attended this peace summit are doing very well realize that the next one has to be with all the major stakeholders or we will not see the light at the end of the tunnel of this crisis. therefore, i am very glad that the next peace summit will be with the participation of the russian federation and at it they will try to find any solution, which, of course, will be very difficult, but we must start with diplomats. solution, because in the third year of this crisis, we see that there is no military solution to this conflict. on thursday, volodymyr zelenskyi will continue his visit to the usa in washington, where he has to meet with president joe biden, vice president kamela harris, and possibly with lawmakers in congress. meanwhile, on the eve of that visit, the house oversight committee is launching an investigation into zelenskyi's visit to a pennsylvania munitions factory

element in the american security policy, so both of them did not even lift a finger at volodymyr zelenskyi, and they clearly said: if you want help, do not get into the american one. criticism, mr. volodymyr, more questions than answers, are there any answers? well, there are questions, there are answers, there are even options for answers, you can, you can, you can go over them, but i will say this here that this advice not to get involved in the domestic politics of the united states or in the american elections, this is very practical advice, and if it was made before the visit, she would have appreciated it without this advice, but now... it already looks like a scandal, conflict and accusations, including from american senators, or members of the chamber or congressmen, that's the main thing the key problem and miscalculation, i'll put it this way, the mistake of the ukrainian delegation, not only president zelenskyi, he heads the delegation, but there were people who prepared, conducted negotiations and so on, but the key strategic thing is that... when you come, when the presidentia

volodymyr zelenskyi to journalists, so volodymyr zelenskyi stated at the meeting with trump that they have a common point of view, trump did not miss his favorite topic and once again reminded about it, reminded everyone, because we we have already heard many times how good his relations are with putin, and volodymyr zelenskyi answered this, i hope that our relations with you are still better than with putin, well, i would like them to be... better than with putin, but you never know what kind of relationship you have with donald trump, because he is a man who can become president, but as we know, even in the position of president, this man could say one thing today, another thing tomorrow, the day after tomorrow go back to the first one, well , that's why, but i still want these the relationship between volodymyr zelenskyi and donald trump was still better than that of trump and putin, and for them to agree on something, to resolve all the problematic situations that have arisen between them in... the impression is that relations between trump and zelenskyi have never been worse than

i think zelenskyy fell into that.exacerbated the problem when he went and gave an interview to a house organ of the democratic party, "the new yorker," and made, frankly, let's say unwise comments. i happen to agree with some of them, but unwise comments about jd vance. they created this firestorm. i give a lot of credit not just to him in reaching out to donald trump to try to fix this, but donald trump being gracious and accepting that outreach immediately, so i think that's important to understand, because the one thing i have not seen since this invasion happened is joe biden and kamala harris stand up and show the necessary bipartisan leadership to sell this to the american people. so, what is it going to take? we come back to your original question. it takes leadership. it takes effort. it takes the bully pulpit. people need to be persuaded. geoff: democrats make the point that joe biden has shown that leadership and the reason there's a western alliance that has been unified in supporting ukraine is because of

with then-candidate trump and the president at the time, it was then that zelenskyi was to contributegation into the burism campaign, which involved hunter biden, biden's son. now we see that trump is not satisfied with zelensky, because he did not want to negotiate with putin and did not want to make concessions. that's how i understand putin, or what means that by the end of the campaign or the election campaign, we're going to see how trump is going to play this ukraine card, given that he's saying that americans are spending a lot on this war, and i'm going to do everything to stop it , well, this is a way to prove to the americans that biden and harris, they squander, to put it bluntly, american money, that it is much easier to end this war, well... it is obvious, mr. sergey, that trump is now playing the card of a peacemaker, a peace lover and so on the leader who can easily derail any conflict, including the one we have today, the question is only at whose expense, you see, he never says how i am going to do it, i will put them at the negotiating table, well you can put at the

zelenskyy is in e u.s. for the u.s.eneral assembly but took a detour to joe biden's town ofsh scranton hape was escorted by pennsylvania governor josh fac shapiro visit to ammunitione factory. >> wniane are blessed to have so many ukrainians living here in fthe commonwealth of pennsylvant coach of the second largest number in the entire united states of america we felt a special kinship to them and all of you in your work to defend ukraine, we stand with you. >> laura: and zelenskyy's presence alone was a received endorsement. >> they have helpeg d us from te very beginning of a full-scale war, that we will still continue with support. i am thankful to president biden for support and the soldiers, surgeons and theh poor you stay with us.ro josephine went manufacturing plant governor shapiro surrogate signed artillery shells that will presumably be used to kill berussians. now clearly this wil be seen by russia as america's direct dea import meant and alry deadly war. how is a smart though? zelenskyy's campaign is causin

yevgeny, how do you assess the results of zelenskyi's american tour? that if volodymyr zelenskyi's team did not create a certain information hype around the victory plan, then these results. it would be easier to evaluate more adequately, now many have a situation where they watched a thriller , a political thriller, as there, how to say, a servant of the people in a house of cards, well , even if it is such a short moment in time, it is enough, well, less than a week in fact, but still yesterday we believed that donald... trump would not meet with volodymyr zelenskyi, then he changed his mind. from a formal point of view, volodymyr zelenskyi has nothing to complain about, he met with biden, with garis, and with trump. but i personally have the feeling that the meaning of the peace plan has been somewhat lost behind these political squabbles, behind this inter-party jostling. i think that its...literally tomorrow the full content will be published by the western media, and then we will have a better, more complete understanding, but this is on the one

the fact that one of the points of zelenskyi's victory plan is to invite ukraine to nato, they say that the president of ukraine hopes to receive an invitation from biden to the presidential elections in the united states of america. how likely is such a scenario and how much of an opportunity is there precisely during the pre-election race in the united states of america, where kamala harris's team obviously does not want to take risks. it is too much to ask such fundamental questions that may, let's say , scare away the american voter from her, you know, unfortunately, i do not expect that such an invitation will come to us from us president biden was a great moment, a great opportunity to get it on the eve of the washington nato summit in july this year, or during this summit, he did not do it, on the contrary. as far as we can understand, the american side, as well as some other nato members, did everything possible to not bring this issue to the fore, so to speak, so ukraine did not receive an invitation, and everything ended, as usual, with general declarations, although they were

[000:00:28;00] president volodymyr zelenskyi went to the united states. ukraine's victory plan. what kind of document is this, what are its points and will zelenskyi's plan be able to bring peace closer? let's find out in today's edition of the bbc, i'm olga polomaryuk. possible ways to end the war began to be talked about in the first weeks of russia's full-scale invasion of ukraine. in march 2022, negotiations between representatives of ukraine and russia took place in istanbul. the parties even reached drafts of a framework agreement, but the matter did not progress further. then there were peace plans from china, indonesia, and the vatican africa. countries had different options, official and non-public, and by the end of the first year of the full-scale war there were already a dozen of them. in november 2022, after the liberation of kherson, volodymyr zelensky presented a peace formula during an online speech at the g20 summit in indonesia. these were 10 points, where, in addition to the release of prisoners, the withdrawal of russian troops and the cessation of hostilitie

i would like to note several interesting details in volodymyr zelenskyi's speech. at first he talked about the threat. disaster at the zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant. the day before, i spoke with the director of the international atomic energy agency, including about this threat and how much concern is caused by a severe war and the possibility of a nuclear disaster, precisely what president zelenskyy spoke about today in his address to the delegates. he replied that europe will also suffer from this. in my opinion, this was a way to get the attention of the delegates. interestingly, at the end of his speech at the un general assembly, he talked about the victory plan that he will present to president biden on thursday. in the white house. he spoke a little about this peace plan. according to him, this is the ukrainian peace plan, which should include the responsibility of the aggressor, that is, russia. it is about the return home of ukrainians soldiers and prisoners. he drew particular attention to this, saying: "delegates from africa, brazil and china. if you

now, zelenskyy is in the u.s. for the u.n.bly and he took a tee tour to joe biden's hometown of scranton where he was escorted by pennsylvania governor josh shapiro on a visit to an ammunition factory. >> we are blessed to have so many ukrainians living here in the commonwealth of pennsylvania, the second largest number in the entire united states of america. we feel a special kinship to them and to all of you in your work to defend ukraine. we stand with. >> you and zelenskyy's presence alone was a perceived endorsement. >> the united states helped us from the very beginning full scale war but we're still called on continued support. we are thankful to president biden bipartisan support. and officers, soldiers, surgeons support. >> laura: at this moment in a manufacturing plant where governor shapiro, a harris surrogate, signs artillery shells that will presumably be used to kill russians. now clearly this will be seen by russia as america's direct involvement in already deadly war. how is this in any way smart though? zelens

vladimir zelenskyy knows that but zelenskyy need support from both democrats and maga republicans in, vice president harris said this to president zelenskyy. >> i share with you, mr. president. there are some in my country who would instead force ukraine to give up large parts of its sovereign territory. who would demand that ukraine accept neutrality, and would require ukraine to forgo security relationships with other nations . these proposals are the same as those of putin, and let us be clear. they are not proposals for peace. instead, they are proposals for surrender. which is dangerous, and unacceptable. >> joining us now is timothy snyder, professor of history at yale university, author of the new book, "on freedom. " it is now a new york times best seller. professor snyder, good to see you. sometimes you and i have parsed some of the things donald trump has said but i think watching him standing there with what a zelenskyy by his side, since he threw what a zelenskyy under the bus while he was president long before this war, and saying the things he said about how zelenskyy s

this was announced by president volodymyr zelenskyi. however, the text of the document from... the general public is currently kept secret, the first to evaluate zelensky's plan will be us president joe biden, with whom zelensky plans to meet next week during the un general assembly in new york and officially present the work. as the ukrainian president previously stated, it will depend on biden whether they will give ukraine what is mentioned in the victory plan. as for the content, it is currently known that the document will include four points: political, military, economic and diplomatic. details. told about them mykhailo podolyak, adviser to the head of the president's office. he clarified that it will be about a clear military package, increasing investments in military production in ukraine, as well as about diplomatic pressure and pathetic coercion of russia, which in particular consists in the fact that ukraine itself can choose which alliance to be a member of. by the way, one of the points of the plan is the kurdish operatio

let's talk, of course, about zelenskyi's american tour., yesterday with biden and haris. what was happening there and what are the prospects in sprint. zelenskyi's victory plan in washington, well, in addition, let's talk about the internal problems in ukraine, which exist, in particular, regarding the production of weapons and regarding the next election campaign, which may take place, as the british publication the economist writes, in 2025. during this broadcast , we will have several groups of guests. in the first evgeny magda will be a part of our program. academic director of the institute of world politics , general serhiy kryvonos and aviation expert valery romanenko. in the second part of our program, which will begin in exactly one hour, we will have journalists, my colleagues olga len and andriy yanitsky. however, before starting our big conversation today, i suggest watching a video of the consequences of yet another terrorist act by the russians. the russians targeted izmail in odesa. three civilians, unfortunately, died, anot

trump criticized zelenskyi for refusing to compromise with putin and for personal insults.how the visit of the president of ukraine to the usa turned into an element of the american election campaign. joint attack on russia. the kremlin decided to consider ukraine's nuclear allies as direct participants in the war in the case of ukraine. long-range strikes, if he can is putin intimidating the west by expanding russian nuclear doctrine? glory to ukraine, this is the verdict program, my name is serhii rudenko, i congratulate everyone and wish everyone good health. for the next hour we talk about war for peace and how our president is in the united states. america with a big american tour, and what are the consequences, there are positive, there are negative consequences, there are trump's statements, there is the expected meeting between zelenskyi and biden, which should take place here in washington, we, we are waiting for the results, of course, of this meeting, because the president is there zelensky will present the plan for the victory of ukraine. throughout our program,

we know he will be meeting with ukraine president volodymyr zelenskyy this week.hat's on the agenda here? >> yes, shanelle, this was a meeting that was filled with a little bit of drama leading up to it. about a week ago, former president trump was asked by reporters if he planned to meet with the ukrainian leader during his visit to the united states this week. he said probably, and then what happened was that last weekend, volodymyr zelenskyy went with some democratic pennsylvania democrats to an ammunitions factory in joe biden's hometown of -- president biden's hometown of scranton, pennsylvania. when that happened, republicans immediately pounced on that saying it was essentially a political photo op. but and then soon after that, we did find out that zelenskyy did a new yorker interview. and some top republicans close to the trump campaign told me that his comments in that interview that were critical of donald trump and very critical of j.d. vance, essentially rubbed the former president the wrong way. and then all of the sudden the meeting was not going to

president zelenskyy: thank you so much. madam vice president, thanks for the invitation and to see you. your journalists i want to especially thank you for your participation in the peace summit. it was very important and we'll remember it, it was successful. we are preparing the second one now. we have to end this war. we need a just peace. and we must protect our people, ukrainian family, ukrainian children, and everyone from putin's attack. we are grateful to the united states for supporting us all along. we will have an important meeting today, right after i talk to president biden, i will share some details of the plan with vice president harris. it's crucial for us to be fully and -- fully understandable and work in full coordination with the united states. and this morning i talked also to the congressman, i am thankful for their bipartisan support. we believe this war can be won and just peace can be close only with the united states. madam vice president, this is our, you said seventh? seventh meeting. as far as i

volodymyr, just at this moment the meeting of president zelenskyy with president...then there will be a meeting with the vice president of the united states of america, kamala harris. zelensky brought the plan for the victory of ukraine to the president of the united states of america and the vice president, he also planned to show this plan to trump, but trump, as i understand it, refused to meet with zelensky for the time being, no one knows for sure the content of the whole plan, well, at least in ukraine, whom i did not ask, no one saw this. of the plan, what is in this plan, but judging by what the western press is writing, the biden administration is not impressed by zelenskyi's victory plan, this is what the wall street journal writes about with reference to officials familiar with the issue, what the publication writes, the publication writes about , that zelenskyi's plan was called repackaged with requests for additional weapons and the lifting of restrictions on the use of missiles of the far soviet union. but in the plan itself there is no clear strategy f

zelenskyy is trying to shore up u.s. support for his fight against russia. as cbs' weijia jiang reports, he finds himself right in the middle of the presidential campaign. >> reporter: two presidential nominees, two starkly different approaches to handling the ukraine war. >> my support for the people of ukraine is unwavering. >> ukraine is gone. it's not ukraine anymore. >> reporter: former president trump this week criticized the ukrainians for not cutting a deal with russian president vladimir putin to end the war. vice president harris met with president zelenskyy and said the focus should be on stopping putin. >> if we allow aggressors like putin to take land with impunity, they keep going. >> reporter: the administration announced more security assistance to ukraine and promised zelenskyy additional funds before the end of president biden's term, easing concerns that trump could cut the money off if he wins. >> we have to keep pressure on russia to stop the war and to make truly lasting and just peace. >> reporter: trump said he will meet with zelensky

quote: i believe that this is a colossal miscalculation by president zelenskyi, if he wants ukraine'support, he should stay away from american politics. and by the way, the same thing, practically the same thing, well almost word for word was repeated by his colleague, who was also one of the 22 senators who voted for the allocation of aid to ukraine, this is senator whip john tum tun, so you understand, this senator. whip john thune, he even argued last year with ron desantis, the governor of florida, who said at the time that support for ukraine has nothing to do with american security at all, and therefore we need to rethink support for ukraine, but this very senator said that no, it is support for ukraine in this war with russia that is a very important element in american security policy, so both of them did not even lift a finger at volodymyr zelenskyi, but they clearly said: you want help... do not get involved in american politics, mr. volodymyr, there are more questions than answers, or answers there are, well, there are questions, and there are answers, and there are even op
