Zelensky Urges Trump to Pressure Putin, Not Ukraine. Volodymyr Zelensky urged Donald Trump to increase pressure on Russia rather than Ukraine in efforts to end the war. Zelensky said Ukrainians are tired after more than four years of conflict but are not willing to accept Russian demands to surrender eastern territory. The Ukrainian leader insisted negotiations are possible but warned that Vladimir Putin cannot be trusted. Trump recently criticized Zelensky and suggested Russia may be more ready for a deal than Ukraine. Zelensky also called on European allies to develop a backup funding plan if Hungary continues blocking an EU loan. He accused Viktor Orbán of “blackmail” for vetoing a proposed €90 billion EU financial package for Ukraine. Zelensky said Ukraine is sending drone warfare specialists to help defend U.S. allies in the Gulf against Iranian drone attacks. Kyiv hopes to secure additional Patriot missile supplies in return, though Zelenskyy warned stocks could be limited.
