Zelenskyy visits Norwegian Parliament as Melby criticizes Trump over Russia sanctions
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy visited the Norwegian Parliament on Wednesday, thanking Norway for its support. The visit came amid tensions with the US over sanctions and peace efforts. Zelenskyy met with parliamentary leaders, while Liberal Party leader Guri Melby criticized Donald Trump for potentially undermining sanctions against Russia. The visit followed Zelenskyy's Oslo meeting with US envoy Steve Witkoff, who traveled to Russia to discuss security and energy infrastructure issues with Putin. Relations between Trump and Zelenskyy remain strained, with Trump accusing Ukraine of not wanting peace. Norway and Finland hosted the talks, which also involved US envoy Jared Kushner digitally. Experts caution against calling the discussions a breakthrough.
