Zelenskyy accuses Trump of pushing Ukraine to surrender

nrk.no (Swedish) —

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy accuses US President Donald Trump of pressuring Ukraine to surrender to Russia, according to a Bloomberg News interview published Sunday evening. Zelenskyy says steps have been taken to convince Ukraine to capitulate, though he stops short of claiming allies intend this outcome. The accusation follows a week of disputes with Trump, who denies Ukraine's interest in ending the war and claims significant peace progress. Zelenskyy also proposes halting strikes on Russian refineries in exchange for Patriot missile deliveries, which he says are delayed and now sold rather than free. Trump has eased Russia sanctions, drawing criticism from Democrats like John Garamendi, who calls it betrayal ahead of November 3 midterm elections.
