“As long as I am head of the Slovak government, I will direct the MPs that are under my control... never to agree to Ukraine's joining NATO.”

We will take "concrete steps to bring Ukraine closer to NATO."

"Ukraine's path and bridge towards NATO membership is now irreversible."

"Ukrainians will not give their land to the occupier."

"It is impossible. Russia has never discussed and will not discuss the topic of exchanging its territory."

"Ukraine is not going to evict every Russian, and Russia is not going to Kyiv, so there will be some land swaps at the end."

"Ukraine is going to have to cede some territory to the Russians."

"There'll be some swapping of territories to the betterment of both [Ukraine and Russia]."

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said Monday he will travel to the U.S. and meet with President Donald Trump at the end of the week. The meeting was seemingly confirmed by Trump who, when asked whether he was meeting Zelenskyy on Friday, responded: "I think so, yeah."

Zelenskyy's remarks came in a press conference alongside Kaja Kallas, the EU's top diplomat, in Kyiv. He said priorities for the Trump meeting included air defense and Ukraine's ability to carry out long-range strikes — a reference to ongoing discussions around Tomahawk missiles. He added he will also meet U.S. energy companies, which he said came at Trump's suggestion.

Expanding on energy, the Ukrainian leader said: "We expect problems with electricity. After one or two attacks, we may need to import power. We always use this option in winter, and it remains available to us."
