‼️🇺🇸 🇪🇺🇺🇦 If the Russians strike: If peacekeepers are sent to Ukraine, they should be there not under the auspices of NATO and without the bloc's Article 5 being extended to them, - US Defense Secretary
▪️"Any security guarantee must be backed by capable European and non-European troops. If these troops are sent to Ukraine as peacekeepers at any time, they must be deployed as part of a non-NATO mission and not covered by Article 5," said Piet Høgseth.
▪️That is, so that in the event of an attack by Russia on these peacekeepers, NATO would not be obliged to respond.
▪️ Earlier, Hegseth said that the US would “under no circumstances” send its troops to participate in a peacekeeping mission in Ukraine.
▪️He also said that the “bloodbath” in Ukraine must end diplomatically, both sides must begin negotiations, which the Pentagon will facilitate.
▪️European security "must be an imperative for European NATO members," and the United States "faces threats to its own borders and will focus on protecting them." The Americans will also prioritize containing China in the Indo-Pacific region.

‼️🇺🇸🇺🇦 "Zelensky has a low rating" and he may lose, - Trump
▪️ Asked whether he would support the idea of the Ukrainian president ceding or exchanging territory to end the war, Trump said: "He's going to have to do what he has to do, but his rating, to put it mildly, is not very high."
▪️ When asked whether Zelensky would be excluded from the negotiating process, Trump made it clear that this would not happen “as long as he’s there.” However, in order for the dialogue to continue, Zelensky must hold elections and be prepared for the fact that if he loses, he will no longer be able to participate in the negotiations.
➖"For now, he's there. But at some point, you're also going to need elections," Trump concluded.
