As Ukraine prepares to commemorate the third anniversary of the Russian invasion, President Volodymyr Zelenskyy is willing to resign if it means peace or membership in NATO that the US and other NATO members oppose. He said that was not the case. Zelensky claims he wants a “friendly” relationship with America (“strategic partner”) and shoulders Trump’s account of brutality as a “dictator” to avoid elections during the war. I shrugged it.
However, he also said he would not sign the US proposed $500 million mineral contract. He said the figure is far higher than the US’s actual military contributions of $100 billion.
“I have not signed 10 generations of Ukrainians to pay later,” he said.

Volodymyr Zelenskyy said he was not about to enter the caves against the intense pressure of ours to sign a $500 million mineral trade, and “on our side” in negotiations to end the war in Ukraine. I hope to become.
Zelensky spoke at a press conference held in Kiev before the third anniversary of the full-scale Russian invasion on Monday, recognizing the amount the White House requested as an apparent “recovery” of previous US military aid. He said that was not the case.
