Zelenskiy expressed readiness to work under Trump's leadership for a Ukraine peace deal, proposing initial steps like prisoner release and truces. This followed a strained White House meeting where US aid was paused and a resources deal remained unsigned. Zelenskiy reaffirmed Ukraine's desire for peace and gratitude for US support, while Russia welcomed the US suspension of arms. The Kremlin previously praised Trump and Vance for criticizing Zelenskiy's perceived lack of gratitude and concessions.
