..."Trump has repeatedly claimed that his negotiation skills would successfully put an end to the ongoing Russia-Ukraine war within "24 hours." Zelensky has expressed skepticism about the claim on more than one occasion, while also arguing that the former president had done little to quell Ukrainian-Russian tensions during his time in the White House.
The issue was raised again during an interview with Zelensky that aired on NBC's Meet the Press on Sunday, prompting the Ukrainian president to invite Trump to Kyiv. Zelensky said that he would personally explain to Trump "in 24 minutes" that Russian President Vladimir Putin would make negotiating a satisfactory end to the war impossible.
"Former President Trump said that [in] about 24 hours, that he can manage it and finish the war," Zelensky said. "I invite President Trump ... If he can come here, I will need 24 minutes—yes, 24 minutes. Not more. Yes. Not more—24 minutes to explain [to] President Trump that he can't manage this war ... He can't bring peace because of Putin."...

Trump says he's pleased by Putin's praise: 'I like that he said that'
Russian President Vladimir Putin recently said he was "happy" to hear Trump's promise to "resolve all burning issues within several days" — including the war in Ukraine.

I think it is a smart move on his part...he is not the president and unless asked by the sitting president to go (which is not going to happen) he needs to say back and let the chips fall where they may. If and if he gets reelected, he can go then but in my opinion he needs to stay put.
