US President Donald Trump said Wednesday Ukraine could "forget about" joining the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO), and he would try to get Ukraine as much land as possible from Russia.

"NATO, you can forget about it," Trump told reporters before convening a meeting of his cabinet members inside the White House.

"I think that's probably the reason the whole thing started," he said.

The president made the remarks when asked what concessions he would like to see at the negotiating table with Russia.

Trump, who has been trying to broker peace for the three-year conflict between Kiev and Moscow, also said that he will try to let Ukraine take back as much Ukrainian territory currently occupied by Russia as possible.

"We're going to do the best we can to make the best deal we can for both sides, but for Ukraine, we're going to try very hard to make a good deal so that they can get as much back as possible. We want to get as much back as possible," he said.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said that he was willing to step down as president if that would mean Ukraine could become a member of NATO.

US provoked the Russia invasion, then supplied weapons. Thats the definition of a Proxy nation and a Proxy War.

US wants to do the same with Taiwan. Sacrificing Taiwan soldiers and civilians to make US happy.

So Taiwanese people think very carefully who you are supporting . Taiwanese should kick the DPP out of the government AS SOON AS POSSIBLE, before is too late.

The DPP is corrupt. Be very careful.

Trump is right. Ceasefire is the top priority. Zenlensky should be brought to guillotine for having lost so many young lives of Ukraine to make his dirty personal gains. 

His argument with Donald Trump and J D Vance at the Oval Office is no more than ensure his life to be saved by the US or other NATO countries.
