He also urged Zelensky to accept terms, saying his people "will not put up with it much longer." Trump added the U.S. received "nothing but grief, deaths, and huge financial losses" from supporting Ukraine, claiming taxpayers and EU countries are tired of it. He also asked Putin to release American Stephen Hubbard.
