The meeting focused on a controversial mineral resources deal, which Trump claims is a step toward a ceasefire. However, tensions escalated when Zelenskyy suggested U.S. officials visit Ukraine to see the war's impact. Trump stated that Zelenskyy was not ready for peace and criticized him for disrespecting the U.S. He emphasized that Ukraine must negotiate or risk losing U.S. support, marking a significant shift in their relationship amid Ukraine's ongoing conflict with Russia.
