18.12.2025 At a press conference in Brussels at margins of the EU Summit, President Zelensky said that the U.S. position on Ukraine’s NATO membership could change when “politicians change or someone dies.”
Does it mean that is waiting for the death of President Trump?
“The United States does not currently see us in NATO. Everything in our life is ‘for now.’ The position may change in the future. Politicians change, some live, some die.”
Zelensky’s terrifying statement.

President Trump and his administation opposed Ukraine’s accession to NATO and persists on ending the war between Ukraine, and Russia. The U.S. President is also inclined to accept some Ukrainian territorial consessions, pointing to impossiblity to regain them. The proposal rejected by Zelensky, who is opposing Trump’s vision to end the war through mutual compromises from both Russian, and Ukrainian side.
Zelensky said Ukraine was definitely facing a €45-50bn deficit next year, and European Commission president Ursula von der Leyen vowed “we will not leave the Summit without a solution”.

The European Commission – the EU’s executive arm – has proposed loaning Kyiv about €90bn over the next two years – out of the €210bn of Russian assets sitting in Europe.
That is about two-thirds of the €137bn that Kyiv is thought to need to get through 2026 and 2027.
