'Open your eyes, help my people,' Usyk tells Trump
Oleksandr Usyk has issued an invitation to Donald Trump to spend a week at his home in Ukraine to gain an insight into the war with Russia.
The former boxer, an undisputed world champion in both the cruiserweight and heavyweight divisions, said Trump needs to develop a more profound understanding of the situation.
"I offer him my home. Let him come to Ukraine. I will give him my home and my security guards. I will ensure his complete safety," Usyk told CNN. "Let him live in my house for a week and see how rockets fly over it and how people live in Ukraine.
"And when he comes secretly, let him live somewhere in (the Kyiv districts of) Obolon or Troyeshchyna, where houses, residential buildings are being bombed. Then he will understand what is happening."
Trump has previously asserted he could resolve the war within 24 hours of taking office, though this did not happen.
"He should be responsible for the words he said," Usyk added.
"He said that in a month or a day he would stop this war. He is not responsible for his words. Why does he speak?"
