Claims to be working on Russia-Ukraine peace while pressuring Zelenskyy
Trump announced his administration was "working very hard" on a peace deal between Russia and Ukraine, sending top officials to Saudi Arabia for talks. Reports indicated Trump was pressuring Ukraine to agree to a ceasefire and territorial concessions to Russia. Ukrainian President Zelenskyy publicly pushed back, stating his country would "never" accept a deal it didn't help negotiate, highlighting the administration's shift away from supporting Ukraine's sovereignty.
