Zelensky Warns Trump's Russia-Europe Security Deal Risks 'Yalta-2' Scenario
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky warned on Friday, November 6, that a potential security agreement between Russia and Europe proposed by US President Donald Trump could be dangerous, citing Moscow's lack of readiness to end the war against Ukraine. In an interview with CNN's Jake Tapper, Zelensky said he lacks full details of Trump's new European security system but stressed Ukraine opposes a "Yalta-2" scenario where major powers decide other nations' fates without their participation. He noted Russia shows no signals of willingness to discuss ending the conflict. Zelensky emphasized the risk primarily threatens Europe, though consequences could affect all continental countries. He clarified Ukraine, not being an EU or NATO member, doesn't speak for those organizations but insists security concerns every European state. He reiterated that sovereignty and territorial integrity are fundamental to any free, democratic nation.
