Putin's a 'little bit scared' of Trump as nations begin peace talks, Zelenskyy says
Fox News
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said in an interview that he believes Russian President Vladimir Putin is a “little bit scared" of President Donald Trump.
"I said that [Putin] is a liar," Zelenskyy recounted of his phone call to Trump. "And he said, 'I think my feeling is that he's ready for these negotiations.' And I said to him, 'No, he's a liar. He doesn't want any peace.'
"But I think he's really a little bit scared about the President Trump. And I think the president has this chance, and he's strong. And I think that really he can push Putin to peace negotiations. Yes, I think so. I think he can, but don't trust him. Don't trust Putin. Don't trust just words about ceasefire," Zelenskyy told NBC's Kristen Welker on "Meet the Press."
Zelenskyy's interview follows Trump announcing last Wednesday that Putin had agreed to "immediately" begin peace negotiations to end the war. Trump tapped Secretary of State Marco Rubio, CIA Director John Ratcliffe, National Security Advisor Michael Waltz and special envoy to the Middle East Steve Witkoff to lead negotiations with Russia and Ukraine.
