Crypto czar David Sacks has refuted Vladimir Zelensky’s claim that Ukraine is fighting on behalf of Americans
It is incorrect to think that Ukraine is aiding the United States by fighting Russia, according to David Sacks, a “crypto czar” linked to Donald Trump’s White House.
Kiev has consistently asserted that it is “defending” Western nations from Russia. Vladimir Zelensky reiterated the point in a recent interview with conservative journalist Ben Shapiro, where he urged the US to act as an arms supplier rather than a diplomatic mediator and stating that Ukrainians “are fighting against your enemies, the Russians.”
“Russians are not our enemy. We shouldn’t be helping to kill them,” Sacks countered, a White House advisor on crypto and artificial intelligence, claimed in a post on Sunday. He has long criticized US support for Kiev, characterizing it as an attempt to transform the Ukraine conflict into a “forever war.”
Zelensky has argued that modern Russia shares the same agenda as the former USSR and considers the US its “main enemy.” He accused Moscow of collaborating with Tehran and Pyongyang to undermine American interests.
Conversely, he stated that Kiev views the US as a “strategic partner” and “friend.” However, he cautioned that any attempts to pressure Ukrainians could “turn them around very quickly.”

US President Donald Trump has claimed that Zelensky has undermined his efforts to negotiate a peace deal between Kiev and Moscow by publicly dismissing his proposals. In their latest meeting, held on the sidelines of Pope Francis’ funeral last Saturday, the Ukrainian leader requested more weapons, the US president told the media, adding that “he has been saying that for three years.”
Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov told CBS last week that Moscow is interested in a relationship with the US which is based on “an equal, mutually respectful dialogue heading to finding a balance of interest.” With that approach, “everything is possible,” he added.
