Heavyweight Boxing Champion Usyk Pleads with Trump, Inviting Him to Spend a Week in Ukraine: ‘Open Your Eyes, Help My People’

  • Oleksandr Usyk, the 38-year-old world heavyweight boxing champion, urged President Donald Trump to spend a week staying at his home in Ukraine to gain firsthand insight into the realities of the ongoing conflict.
  • Usyk made the invitation amid Russia's full-scale invasion of Ukraine, which began in 2022 following earlier aggression starting in 2014, and after Trump promised to end the war within 24 hours if re-elected.
  • Usyk described daily life under constant attacks, noting bombs fly nightly over his home near Kyiv, and emphasized that many civilians, including children and the elderly, suffer from the conflict.
  • Usyk invited President Donald Trump to stay at his home in Ukraine for a week to witness firsthand the impact of the ongoing conflict, urging him to fulfill his campaign commitment.
  • Despite Trump's prior meetings with Putin and Zelensky and pledges to mediate, no ceasefire has emerged, leading Usyk to publicly call for renewed efforts to end the conflict and help free Ukrainian POWs.
