Zelensky Warns Time Is Running Out as Trump Claims National Emergency

 
 
Jan 30, 2026
Zelensky has stated that Ukraine is interested in “fast track” with regards to joining the EU. 
  • He argued that in the future, Russia will try to block this just as Russia tries to block Ukraine’s accession to NATO. 
  • He has also explained why he has criticised Europe in Davos and it appears that the reason was the lack of interceptor missiles. 
  • According to him, he knew in advance that the Russian attack was coming and that Ukraine won’t be able to stop it.
