Harris too alluded during his statements to his Republican rival for the November 5 elections, the former president Donald Trumpalthough he did not mention him by name.
“There are some in my country who, if they could, would force Ukraine to give up large parts of its sovereign territory, who would make Ukraine agree to declare itself neutral, and who would force Ukraine to renounce its security relations with other nations.”
Kamala Harris, vice president of the United States and Democratic candidate
“These proposals are the same as those of (Vladimir) Putin. And let’s be clear, these are not peace proposals. Instead, they are proposals for surrender, which is dangerous and unacceptable,” he said with special force.
Harris defended the importance of the United States maintaining its leadership in the world, one of the premises of the foreign policy of US President Joe Biden.
“History has shown us that if we allow aggressors like Putin to conquer lands with impunity, then they will continue, and Putin could set his sights on Poland, the Baltic states and other NATO allies.”
Kamala Harris, vice president of the United States and Democratic candidate
“History reminds us that the United States cannot and should not isolate itself from the rest of the world. Isolation is not protection. “For this reason, the United States supports Ukraine, not out of charity, but because it is part of our strategic interests.”
Kamala Harris, vice president of the United States and Democratic candidate
After Harris, he intervened Zelenskiwhich thanked the vice president for the solidarity she has shown to Ukraine in each of their meetings and asked for his help in strengthening Ukraine’s air defenses to prevent Russia from continuing to attack the country’s cities and infrastructure, such as its electrical grid.
Zelensky explained that he wants to talk to Harris about what he calls his “Victory Plan”, whose details are unknown, but whose fundamental component would be for Washington to accelerate aid to kyiv before Biden leaves power in January 2025.
While Harris has promised to maintain support for Ukraine that the Biden government has shown, Trump has assured on several occasions that if he returned to the White House he would resolve the war between Moscow and kyiv in 24 hours, but he has not explained how.

Minutes before, through his social network Truth, Trump had disclosed an alleged personal message from Zelensky sent through the Ukrainian acting ambassador, Denys Sienikin which the president said he wanted to hear his “thoughts directly and first-hand.”
“Everyone in Ukraine wants to end this war with a just peace. And we know that without the United States this is impossible to achieve. That is why we must strive to understand each other and be in close contact.”
Zelensky to Trump in that message
At a campaign event in North Carolina, Trump criticized the Ukrainian leader, accusing him of uttering “slander” against him -without specifying- and describing it as “the best salesman on Earth”, in reference to the military aid it receives from the United States.
“You know that I always speak with great respect about everything that has to do with you and that is how it should be,” says Zelensky in his message mediated by diplomacy.
In the recent debate with Kamala Harris, Trump hinted that he did not intend to maintain military aid to Ukraine if he won the elections and made it his priority to end the war with Russia, without clarifying what the price of peace would be.
