Trump and Zelenskyy sign minerals deal amid tensions
Former President Donald Trump and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy met to sign a minerals deal. This agreement follows a contentious exchange, where Trump previously criticized Zelenskyy and demanded $500 billion, which Zelenskyy rejected. Trump described the deal as fair and emphasized the need to stop the war. He mentioned the importance of compromise with Russia and expressed a commitment to both Ukraine and Poland. Zelenskyy expressed hope that the agreement would benefit Ukraine but indicated that it was insufficient. He also sought clarity on U.S. support, particularly regarding LNG terminals.
