Political scientist Volodymyr Tsybulko believes Kyiv should place greater emphasis on Ukraine's role in European security to ensure continued U.S. support

He shared his opinions with Espreso TV.

“We have several ways to encourage Donald Trump to support Ukraine. First, there’s the matter that Zelenskyy halted and did not let Democrats develop - specifically, access to mineral resources. I’m very interested to see when the agreement for the sale of titanium deposits will be canceled. Secondly, there’s Ukraine’s role in European security. Trump will, in any case, look for ways to shift the responsibility for Europe’s security onto Europe itself, and in this context, Ukraine would definitely be essential,” Tsybulko explained.

The political scientist noted that for the Donald Trump administration to support Ukraine, Kyiv needs to start working on a proposal now. It’s clear that in exchange for support and aid, Trump would expect something in return.

  • On Tuesday, November 5, the United States of America held presidential elections. Citizens chose the country's leader for the next four years. Donald Trump became the head of the United States, defeating Kamala Harris. Espreso conducted a text broadcast.
  • On November 6, world leaders took to social media to congratulate Republican candidate Donald Trump on his presidential election victory.
  • After Donald Trump’s win in the U.S. presidential election, Ukrainian Foreign Minister Andrii Sybiha stated that Kyiv is ready to work with Washington to strengthen their “strategic partnership”.
  • It was also reported that U.S. President Biden called Trump to congratulate him on his victory.
