Ukraine’s Volodymyr Zelenskyy apparently thinks that he can, and must, bring U.S. President-elect Donald Trump up to his level of knowledge and under the control of the intelligence community. Ukrinform reports that Zelenskyy told Le Parisien that “Trump knows about my desire not to rush to the detriment of Ukraine. The country has long been fighting for its sovereignty. No matter how many presidents or prime ministers want to declare an end to the war, we are not going to just give up and surrender our independence…. The danger would be to say: ‘We will freeze the war and negotiate with the Russians.’”
