Former U.S. President Donald Trump has expressed his support for Ukraine and his desire to end the ongoing conflict with Russia. This was revealed by Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy during an interview with Indian reporters, which he shared on his social media channel on Sunday.

Trump, who is currently a Republican presidential candidate, is competing closely with Vice President Kamala Harris in the upcoming U.S. election slated for November 5. He has made headlines for threatening to withdraw the U.S. from NATO and stating that he would not defend allies who do not increase their defense budgets.

Trump's comments have added a new dimension to the geopolitical discourse, potentially influencing the U.S. foreign policy landscape and the future of international alliances.
