Zelensky:

I really want our relations - between Ukraine and America, and with all our other partners - to be strong, truly friendly and without misunderstandings.

These days people ask why Ukraine speaks more openly and directly to the world. The answer is simple.

We want others to understand us - societies, nations, as many people as possible.

When people understand what is really going on, political leaders can take a stronger path - the one that can really bring peace closer.

And peace is what we want more than anything.
