The American writer, the king of horrors Stephen King, known for his constant support of Ukraine, made a new statement. He emphasized that the head of the Kremlin, Volodymyr Putin, and the President of Ukraine, Volodymyr Zelensky, should “stop killing people.” Instead, King suggests that Putin and Zelensky should fight each other to resolve all “differences.”
The writer believes that the president of Ukraine would win in a hand-to-hand fight, which he would like to see. King also offers to pay to watch the fight.
“I think Putin and Zelensky should stop killing people and settle their differences mano a mano on pay-per-view. I’d like to see Mr. Z kick Putin’s ass,” wrote the king of horror.

The expression mano a mano describes a conflict between two people and comes from the Spanish language, where it literally means “hand to hand”. However, it is sometimes confused with man-to-man, which means a direct conversation, usually between two men, or a one-on-one defensive game.
Support of Ukraine by Stephen King
After the full-scale Russian invasion of Ukraine, the king of horrors repeatedly spoke out in support of Ukrainians, condemning the actions of the Russian occupiers.
On March 31, 2022, Stephen King addressed the President of the Russian Federation, saying that “Ukraine will empty his treasury” and “bleed you out.” He later stated that Putin underestimated Ukraine.
At the end of May 2022, King called on the world to continue economic pressure on Russia. He also emphasized to Russia that they are dealing not with a wolverine, but with a wolverine.
On June 28, 2022, he condemned the Russian missile attack on the Kremenchug shopping center.
At the beginning of September 2022, the American writer Stephen King supported the offensive of the ZSU.
Later, in October, the American writer on behalf of the whole world turned to Russia and advised them to “get out of Ukraine.” He called the statement of the Russian Federation that the blowing up of the Crimean bridge was terrorism, following the invasion of Ukraine, the icing on the cake.
On December 31, 2022, King shared that his most cherished wish for the new year is peace in Ukraine.
In April 2023, the famous American writer once once more supported Ukraine and urged not to succumb to the temptation of an easy peace. “Keep Ukraine in your hearts and thoughts. Do not support the peacemakers (peacemakers) who want to leave them behind,” he wrote.
In April 2024, Stephen King condemned the delay and constant postponement of the vote on military aid to Ukraine by the US Republicans.
