President Trump has continued his recent criticism of Volodymyr Zelenskyy despite his Ukraine envoy referring to him as a "courageous leader of a nation at war".

Summary

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy is not ready to sign a minerals deal with the US, citing “problematic issues” and a lack of partnership in the draft agreement.

The deal, pushed by Trump, seeks US access to Ukraine’s natural resources in exchange for weapons. Trump allies claim Zelenskyy will sign soon, but Ukraine resists.

US negotiators allegedly suggested cutting Ukraine’s access to Elon Musk’s Starlink if a deal isn’t reached.

Meanwhile, Trump continues to criticize Zelenskyy and downplays Ukraine’s leverage in negotiations with Russia.
