Summary
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky remained upbeat after a tense diplomatic tour, including a difficult meeting with Donald Trump and JD Vance.
Warmly received in the UK, he rejected calls to apologize for the Oval Office clash and stood firm against territorial concessions to Russia.
Zelensky cautiously supported European-led peace efforts but emphasized Ukraine’s sovereignty, signaling willingness to grant the U.S. mineral rights.
Despite NATO urging him to mend ties with Trump, he maintained his stance, leaving diplomatic tensions unresolved as discussions on the war’s future continue.
I’d take just 1% of this guys resilience anytime …
Me too, hooooold the front door!, I hope he can enjoy some time off soon. What a beast.
It sounds like all he wanted was formal written security guarantees in exchange for mineral rights, and it was like $500 billion in mineral rights. All Trump could do though is praise Putin & say trust us bro. Zelensky is smart enough to know the terms of such agreements needs to be in writing & not just “trust us bro.”
