Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said he had a “very good” telephone conversation with US President-elect Donald Trump after his election victory, Reuters and DPA reported.
“We agreed to maintain close dialogue and develop our cooperation. “The strong and unwavering leadership of the United States is essential for a just world and peace,” Zelensky wrote in a post on the social network X. “His great campaign is the reason this result was possible. I congratulate his family and team for their great work.” Zelensky added.
Ukraine's president was one of the first leaders to congratulate Trump on election night.
Ukraine relies heavily on US military assistance for its defense against Russia. Trump said that he would work with Kiev and Moscow to end the conflict between them in a very short time, DPA recalled.
