Ukraine-U.S. relations remain strained but not broken

U.S.-Ukraine relations remain strained after a tense meeting between President Donald Trump, Vice-President JD Vance, and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy. Trump urged Zelenskyy to negotiate with Russia, leading to disappointment among Ukrainians in Canada. Zelenskyy left the White House without finalizing a deal on rare earth minerals. Analysts suggest the relationship is not broken, but future U.S. support for Ukraine is uncertain. Experts warn that withholding military aid could lead to increased civilian casualties in Ukraine. As allies prepare for a summit in London, support for Ukraine continues from Canada and the UK. Zelenskyy expressed gratitude for this backing, while Canadian officials emphasized the need for unity among G7 nations amid ongoing tensions.
