Ukrainian President Volodimier Zelansky said that if Ukraine’s membership was given in NATO, he would be ready to step down.
“If (this means) peace for Ukraine, if you really need to quit my position, I am ready,” Zelancesi said at a press conference on Sunday, the third anniversary of the Russian invasion. “I can exchange it for NATO (membership), if that situation is immediately,” he said.
But NATO’s membership for Ukraine, already unlikely in the short term, President Donald Trump took a tough turn against American support to protect Ukraine against his devastating attack and occupation by Russia. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth said that NATO’s membership was not realistic for a conversation for war, Trump spoke with Russian President Vladimir Putin and a team to interact with Russian counterparts in Saudi Arabia for the end of the war. Sent – no one from Ukraine without input or its European partner.
Zelansky also had rigid terms for a deal proposed by the Trump administration, which had to control the country’s mineral reserves in exchange for continuous American support. He said that the proposed deal would need Ukraine to pay back assistance to rescue against Russia’s attacks – a word that he would never accept. Zelansky stated that the total amount of assistance given by Trump to Ukraine has been cited by $ 500 billion, which is also out of the ratio-the real amount is less than one-fifth, Zelancesi said.
He said that the deal is understood only when the US deployed its own soldiers to Ukraine as a security guarantee.

Even the President Joe Biden, who preferred Ukraine aid, drawn a red line when he was sending American soldiers into a struggle and attached to Russia directly into the war.
The Trump team insisted on Zelancesi on the deal ‘Now wave’
But even when Zelansky criticized the deal, the representatives of Trump insisted that it would be finalized this week.
However, Zelansky’s “commitment” was in an unstable ground a week ago for the deal, “The President sent a message to him. He is not dicking no more,” Steve Witcoff, Trump’s special messenger, CNN on Sunday “State” Told the off the union. “I think you will see it signed this week,” he said.
Witcoff stated that the war was “provoked,” but not “necessary” by the Russians – the attacker country.
He said, “All types of conversations about joining NATO had come back. It did not have to happen. It was originally a threat to the Russians,” he said.
The relationship between Trump and Zelanski diverted a nose last week, in which Trump Branding Zelancesi pushed the “dictator” and for Ukraine to hold an election – Ukraine has postponed him during the war with Russia. Asked if Putin is entitled to the same title, Trump faced this question.
