Trump's advisers seek to salvage Ukraine mining deal
President Trump's advisers are struggling to salvage a mining deal with Ukraine after a contentious meeting with President Volodymyr Zelenskyy. The meeting, intended to build confidence for peace talks, ended in accusations and disagreements. Trump and his team reacted aggressively to Zelenskyy's doubts about Russia's commitment to a peace agreement. Following the meeting, discussions arose about Zelenskyy's advisers and their role in the failed negotiations. The mining deal, seen as a foundation for future U.S.-Ukraine relations, has not been finalized. There are concerns about U.S. military support for Ukraine, with no clear plans for further assistance from Congress.
