OREANDA-NEWS  The US presidential candidate from the Republican Party, Donald Trump, declined an invitation from Ukrainian President Vladimir Zelensky to visit Ukraine. Die Zeit writes about this.

"There have been no contacts with Zelensky, and President Trump has publicly stated that it is inappropriate for him to go to Ukraine now that he is not commander—in-chief," Trump's campaign headquarters said.

Former US leader Donald Trump has repeatedly stated during the election campaign that he will be able to end the conflict in Ukraine in 24 hours if he wins the presidential election.

In February, Ukrainian President Zelensky invited Trump to come to the country, adding that he was ready to go with him even to the front line.

On February 9, Zelensky re-invited Trump to visit Ukraine. "I am definitely ready to meet with him," he said.
