Zelensky stated that the wars in the Middle East and in Ukraine are “incomparable in scale”

Zelensky on the Incomparability of Conflicts

Volodymyr Zelensky expressed the opinion that the wars in the Middle East and in Ukraine are not subject to comparison. This statement was made on October 19, 2025, during a conversation with journalists.

The President of Ukraine noted that despite the casualties and losses in both regions, the scale and nature of the conflicts differ significantly. The confrontation with Russian troops makes ending the war in Ukraine particularly difficult.

Prospects for Resolution

Zelensky emphasized that Ukraine has approached a possible end to the war. However, he said, this does not guarantee a quick resolution of the conflict.

Earlier, The Wall Street Journal reported that after reaching a ceasefire agreement between Hamas and Israel, U.S. President Donald Trump might focus on resolving the war in Ukraine. Increasing pressure on Russia is considered one of the possible steps.

The Role of International Leaders

After visiting the Middle East, Trump also noted that Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan could play a significant role in achieving peace between Ukraine and Russia.

These diplomatic efforts highlight the complexity and multilayered nature of international relations, where every action has its consequences.

Ending the conflict in Ukraine remains one of the key tasks of world politics, requiring a delicate approach and strategic thinking.
