Ukrainians have received a strong positive boost.
What is the current mood in Ukraine after the angry tirades of US President Donald Trump against the country's President Volodymyr Zelensky?
The Charter97.org website spoke about this with retired colonel of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, military expert Roman Svitan:
— It is very important to note here: it is impossible to stop military actions, it is impossible to go into an operational pause, which will give the Russians an opportunity to reformat, strengthen and continue to strike. This should not be done under any circumstances.
As for Trump's demand to figure out where the hundreds of billions that were spent on Ukraine are... Well, this is good for us. Now all Ukrainians are clapping their hands. Finally, someone will squeeze and tear apart the Ukrainian embezzlers.
The next demand, concerning rare earth metals worth half a trillion — no questions. You can give a trillion: dig, extract, invest money!
In order to extract these rare earth metals, you need to invest about 100 billion dollars. The pegmatites are very deep. We will not do this, we do not have that kind of money, but the Americans do: dig, extract, but just share with the people of Ukraine. The land and subsoil belong to the people.
Therefore, everything that Trump has just said, if you use it correctly, gives Ukrainians a serious positive impetus to carry out combat missions. You just need to look at it correctly. This is called the philosophy of aikido: use the enemy's strength for your own purposes, redirecting it, or even strengthening it. Which is what we will do. Everything is fine.
— Which countries can Ukraine count on for assistance? Who is critically important for support today?
— Firstly, the United States and their programs that are underway. No one stopped them, military assistance is underway, and it is very important for us. Secondly, of course, European institutions, which, in principle, can provide assistance, and quite massively.
We rely on European financial and logistical assistance. And, of course, we hope that American weapons will continue to flow.
There are no problems with Trump. Yes, he likes to talk and shout loudly, but you just need to perceive him correctly.
