Ukrainian leaders express concern as Trump and Putin strengthen ties

U.S. and Russian relations are shifting after talks in Saudi Arabia, where both sides agreed to restore embassy staffing and begin negotiations. This development has raised concerns in Ukraine about potential unfavorable peace terms. Trump's recent comments, suggesting elections in Ukraine and blaming Zelenskyy for the war, have intensified tensions. Zelenskyy responded, defending his leadership amid claims of low approval ratings. Ukrainian leaders are increasingly anxious as Trump and Putin appear aligned against Zelenskyy. This situation complicates Ukraine's diplomatic efforts and raises fears about its future stability.
