Why Did Zelensky Visit the U.S.? Was There No Pre-Summit Coordination?
As Zelensky flew to the U.S. on the last day of February, what might have been on his mind?
Trump, in his usual fashion, likely believed he held the upper hand and that getting what he wanted would be easy. However, watching this summit, I was left astounded by how world leaders—who should be representing their nations with dignity—displayed such embarrassingly low levels of diplomacy.
Trump and Vance’s behavior was somewhat predictable, yet I had hoped Zelensky might extract something beneficial from the talks. However, the way the conversation unfolded was nothing short of comical.
Watching this summit, the global audience was left in sheer disbelief.
“Are these really the people leading nations?”
When engaging in high-level diplomatic talks, national leaders must employ strategic negotiation tactics and have a clear plan. Instead, what we witnessed was nothing more than a chaotic argument.
What Lies Ahead for Ukraine?
“The White House has decided to cut off all ongoing aid.”
This essentially means that without continued U.S. support, Ukraine becomes far more vulnerable to Russian aggression. This situation presents Putin with a golden opportunity to turn the tide of the war.
So, what does the U.S. gain from this move? Could this be a calculated strategy?
By allowing Russia to win, the U.S. might gain access to Ukraine’s resources or, at the very least, force Ukraine and the EU into a position where they must propose a favorable deal.
The Stance of the EU, Ukraine, and Allied Nations
The international community must wake up to the reality of America’s "America First" approach and act accordingly. The U.S. has historically wielded influence across the globe, shaping alliances and maintaining a network of partner nations. However, as history has shown, there are no eternal allies—only shifting interests.
Blindly following the U.S. without securing our own national interests would reduce allied nations to nothing more than economic vassal states. Trump, in particular, appears to be leveraging financial power to turn sovereign nations into economic dependencies.
His statement to Canada—"Why not become the 51st state?" — was not a joke. It was a strategic move to erode Canada's national identity, strip away its political influence, and turn it into a mere economic satellite of the U.S.
With his strategy laid bare, how should nations respond?
They must unite. If we want to resist, we must stand together.
Optimism for Canada, South Korea, and Other Allied Nations
We can overcome this. ✊🏻
This summit has revealed the true nature of those leading powerful nations. Unlike in the past, we must prepare for economic warfare.
We have limitless potential and the capability to safeguard global stability. Just as David once defeated Goliath, if we harness our collective strength, we can overcome this challenge.
To the people of Ukraine, the EU, and all allied nations left in shock by this summit—let’s come together. Let’s ensure our leaders take the right steps toward unity and resilience.
As someone living in Canada, I will do what I can to contribute in these changing times.
Thank you.
