On air with Yuriy Romanenko, we discussed the visit of Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky to the United States and its key strategic implications for Ukraine. The focus is on the difference in war goals between Ukraine and the United States, the role of Turkish-speaking unions and the influence of Ukrainian foreign policy on this, changes in Russia's nuclear doctrine, Russia's reliability as a Western partner, and why Putin will not allow Western missile strikes on Russian territory:

➤ 00:00 Visit of Ukrainian President Zelensky to the United States.
➤ 00:40 The strategic difference in war goals between Ukraine and the United States.United States propose to change the war goals, freeze the existing results and focus on the prioritized development of remaining territories.
➤ 03:54 Will we be able to admit that the allies and Ukraine are losing the war? Ukraine's ask to join NATO contradicts strategic goals of the West.
➤ 08:11 Western strategists are considering a union of Turkish-speaking peoples. Ukraine is still ignoring the interests of Western partners.
➤ 09:52 Military budget of Russia and China for 2025. Changes in the Russian nuclear doctrine. Are Russia's plans a fit for the Western alliance? Russia's multi-vector policy. Why Putin cannot allow Western long-range missile strikes on Russian territory.
➤ 17:00 Military force has again become an argument since February 22, 2022.
➤ 19:15 Trump's meeting with Zelensky. Why Iran, Russia, and China are interested in the victory of the Democrats. It is not worth paying attention to the public rhetoric of the Republicans and Democrats. The meaining of "Reset programs" of Republicans and Democrats. Democrats are putting pressure on Ukraine for peace negotiations.
➤ 26:00 Assessment of Zelensky's visit to the United States: finalization of the outline agreement before the November Peace Summit.
➤ 28:23 Zelensky's visit is difficult, but not a failure. The problem is in the mismatch of strategic goals of the war. Establishing borders of 1991 is not accepted by by the West. They expect Ukraine to change its goals. Ukraine is on the West's team as a weak link.
➤ 32:24 Arestovych did not meet with Zelensky in the United States.
➤ 33:43 The West supports Ukraine, but within the framework of the global structure of confrontation, Ukraine is considered an unreliable and capricious member of the team, with unrealistic goals, which tends to ruin the big game.
➤ 35:45 Russia's strategic goal regarding Ukraine is to win back its zone of influence in world politics, at the expense of Ukraine. Ukraine's tasks in the West's team are to defend its zone of influence.
➤ 39:50 Ukraine's fight for the 1991 borders is an unrealistic goal. The country's real tasks for 2026-2030.
➤ 41:02 Can the "great Turan" become an ally of Ukraine? Ukraine's omission of relations with the CIS countries is one of the key mistakes.
➤ 42:26 Will Ukraine be able to bargain correctly, surrounding itself with strong ties with partners, and get acceptable conditions for restoration?
➤ 44:54 Arestovich's stylized crypto jacket.
➤ 45:44 Summary: what is important for Ukrainians to understand.
