• Ukrainian President Zelensky criticizes the EU for lacking political will against Russia.
• Zelensky confirms that US security guarantees for Ukraine are ready to sign.
• He emphasizes territorial disputes as the main unresolved issue in peace talks.
• Zelensky compares Europe's situation to the movie "Groundhog Day" due to inaction.
• Trump's stance on negotiations is seen as unchanging, according to Zelensky.

During a recent address at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky criticized the European Union's lack of "political will" in countering Russian leader Vladimir Putin. This speech came shortly after his meeting with US President Donald Trump, where they discussed post-war US security guarantees for Ukraine, which Zelensky stated are “done” and ready for ratification by both the Ukrainian parliament and Congress, although he did not specify the details of these guarantees, according to South China Morning Post, Channel News Asia, and Le Monde.

In a remarkable shift from his previously warm tone towards the EU, Zelensky described their inaction as reminiscent of the film "Groundhog Day," highlighting the delays that have hindered the establishment of a European war crimes tribunal concerning the Russian invasion. He questioned, “What’s missing: time or political will?” emphasizing Europe’s struggle to unify and effectively address pressing global issues, according to South China Morning Post and Channel News Asia.

Zelensky further expressed concern that Europe appears "lost" when interacting with Trump, stating, "Europe looks lost trying to convince the US President to change." This sentiment was compounded by Trump's assertion following his meeting with Zelensky, where he stated, "This war has to end," indicating the ongoing dialogue with Russia as crucial, according to Le Monde.

The Ukrainian President identified the question of territory as a critical unresolved issue, highlighting that the conflict centers on Ukraine’s eastern regions. He stated, “It’s all about the eastern part of our country. It’s all about the land,” warning that concession to Russia could embolden their aggressive stance, according to South China Morning Post, Channel News Asia, and Le Monde.
