Donald Trump said he might travel to Kyiv, but only after the war ends and the city is less destroyed [1].
The statement comes as the international community continues to monitor the stability of Ukraine and the potential for diplomatic resolutions to the conflict. A visit by a high-profile U.S. political figure to the capital would signal a significant shift in the diplomatic landscape.
Trump said a visit would be more appropriate once the active fighting has ceased. He said the timing of such a trip depends on the state of the city and the conclusion of hostilities [1].
Speaking via a video report from TSN, Trump said it would be better to visit when the war is over [1]. He said he desired for the city to not have such large destructions at the time of his arrival [1].
While the statement outlines a possibility, no specific timeline or itinerary was provided. The comments focus on the condition of the urban environment, and the necessity of a peace agreement before any travel occurs [1].
Trump's remarks emphasize a preference for visiting a stabilized Kyiv rather than one currently facing the pressures of war [1].
“краще б, коли війна закінчиться”
This statement suggests that Trump views a visit to Kyiv as a post-conflict activity rather than a diplomatic tool for current negotiations. By linking his travel to the end of the war and the level of city destruction, he positions the visit as a symbolic gesture of peace or reconstruction rather than an active engagement with a wartime government.
