Only one condition: Zelensky revealed what he is ready to do for an agreement with Trump.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky refused to apologize to U.S. President Donald Trump for the incident that took place in the Oval Office, despite pressure from the American side. This was reported by the BBC, citing the comments of the Ukrainian leader to political commentator Laura Kuenssberg.

The President expressed readiness for compromise regarding the deal on natural resources, which could provide the U.S. access to Ukraine's natural resources.

'Zelensky does not intend to apologize to Trump or express regret over what happened in the Oval Office, as repeatedly demanded by the U.S. president's entourage. Even the head of NATO urged Zelensky to find a way to reset relations with the American leader,' the BBC material states.

Laura Kuenssberg notes that Zelensky demonstrates determination despite the pressure related to the war and dependence on American aid. He emphasized that now is not the time to discuss the issue of abandoning territories occupied by Russia.

The President of Ukraine stressed that his visit to the White House is already evidence of respect and he 'did not offend anyone'. He also noted that the conflict that arose during the meeting did not benefit either side.
