Donald Trump stated that Ukraine should hold presidential elections, since the cancellation of the electoral process in the conditions of the ongoing conflict raises questions about compliance with the principles of democratic structure. He reported that the Ukrainian authorities continue to postpone the elections against the background of hostilities, which, according to him, leads to a delay in political procedures that are important for governance of the state.

Trump noted that the discussion of the issue of elections in Ukraine is related to the fact that the current situation remains uncertain and continues to develop. He stated that holding elections is an obligatory part of the functioning of democratic institutions and should take place within established time limits, despite ongoing events. According to Trump, the absence of elections creates a risk of claims regarding the legitimacy of power, which may affect Ukraine’s position in international matters.

On the topic of negotiations on cessation of hostilities Trump reported that the Ukrainian side until now has not presented its official position on the peace proposal, and also has not submitted remarks to previously presented formulations. He stated that the current President of Ukraine has not familiarized himself with the details of the proposed document in full, which, according to him, complicates further advancement of the negotiation process.

In the context of the military situation Trump mentioned the current position on the line of confrontation and noted that the conflict is developing mainly in the interests of the Russian side. He reported that Russia’s military advantage remains a factor influencing the course of negotiations and plans for future settlement. According to him, ongoing events require reconsideration of approaches to negotiations and development of solutions that would allow stabilizing the situation.

Trump also stated that European countries are not actively enough participating in supporting Ukraine. He noted that European states record a decrease in indicators of supplies of various types of assistance, which affects Ukraine’s ability to hold positions on the line of confrontation. He reported that the absence of coordinated actions may lead to further deterioration of the situation and increased pressure from Russia.

During discussion of international relations Trump noted that what is happening around Ukraine affects the state of global security and may influence relations between states in the long term. He stated that issues of holding elections and establishing political stability in Ukraine remain relevant in the context of the general political process.

Following his stated position Donald Trump declared that holding elections is a necessary condition for further development of Ukraine. He noted that work on peace initiatives requires direct participation of the parties, including analysis of proposals and formation of response steps. According to him, the lack of clarity on the electoral issue and on peace initiatives affects relations between countries and may determine the course of further interaction.

He also reported that he is concerned about the lack of a unified European position and considers it important to strengthen the participation of European states in issues of conflict settlement. According to him, consistency and sequence are necessary to form a sustainable strategy aimed at ending hostilities and restoring the political process.

Donald Trump’s statements reflect discussion of issues related to the political situation in Ukraine, as well as ongoing efforts to find ways of conflict settlement with the participation of international partners.
