**Ukraine Needs US Help to Win War**
Poland’s President Andrezj Duda said Ukraine cannot win the war against Russia without help from the United States. He made this statement after meeting with US President Donald Trump at a conference in Maryland.
Duda met with Trump on February 22nd and discussed ways to end the bloodshed in Ukraine. He told reporters that Trump wants to stop Russia’s war on Ukraine, but said that Ukraine needs American support to survive.
**Just and Sustainable Peace Needed**
The Polish leader believes that Ukraine and Russia need a just and sustainable peace to avoid future conflicts. This means that Russia must not be allowed to attack anyone again and that the war will not return.
Duda reminded Trump that Russian President Vladimir Putin is a former KGB officer, which makes him suspicious of Russia’s intentions. The White House said that a deal with Russia could be expected soon.
**US Military Support Needed**
Ukraine has been growing anxious that US military support will end as Trump negotiates with Russia. Duda’s comments echo those of other European leaders, who say that only a US security guarantee can deter Russia from launching further aggression.
A new round of talks between the US and Russia is planned for February 25th in Saudi Arabia.
