NBC learned what Trump will require from Zelensky after the minerals deal.
US President Donald Trump expressed dissatisfaction with the mineral deal between the US and Ukraine, claiming it is not enough to restore aid and intelligence sharing. He demands President Zelensky make territorial concessions to Russia and restore the electoral process. There is also talk of Zelensky's possible resignation. The lack of American aid and intelligence is already having a negative impact on the situation at the front. Republican congressmen are pressuring the White House, calling for support to be reinstated. Meanwhile, the US continues to provide targeted defense information but does not supply it for strikes on Russian positions.
President Donald Trump: 'Signing the mineral deal is not enough. I expect President Zelensky to make the necessary territorial concessions to Russia and restore the electoral process.'
Ukraine is forced to seek compensation from European allies due to the lack of American intelligence, but this weakens its position and strengthens Russia. The situation is becoming increasingly complex for Ukraine.
