What concerns does Ukrainian President Zelensky have about potential US-Russia talks?
President Zelensky is terrified that a deal will be cut between President Putin and President Trump that could result in Ukraine losing part of its territory. This fear is heightened by Russia's demands that NATO withdraw its 2008 commitment to bring Ukraine into the alliance. The elimination of this commitment would remove a crucial deterrent against Russian aggression. While current talks are described as preliminary and exploratory, Zelensky is concerned that ultimately any deal would be made directly between Putin and Trump, with Ukraine potentially having little or no say in negotiations that determine its future.
