Wolcz explained why Trump is disappointed in Zelensky.


US National Security Advisor Mike Wolcz announced that President Trump is very disappointed in Zelensky, his Ukrainian counterpart. Wolcz stated this during a briefing where he reported that Trump's disappointment is due to Zelensky's unwillingness to start negotiations despite the American leader's proposal. Wolcz hopes that the negotiations will still take place in the near future.
It is obvious that President Trump is currently very disappointed in President Zelensky. The fact that he has not sat down to negotiate, that he has not wanted to take advantage of this opportunity that we offered, I think he will ultimately come to this, and I hope it happens very quickly. But President Trump, as we have made clear to our Russian colleagues, and I want to do that today, is focused on stopping the fighting and moving forward.
For his part, Wolcz noted that Trump's disappointment has several reasons. First, the US president believes that his actions aimed at supporting Ukraine and developing its resources should be highly valued. In addition, the insults directed at Trump by Kyiv's high officials are unacceptable, and it is also worth remembering the visit of the US Secretary of the Treasury with an offer to invest together with Ukraine in their resources.
His disappointment in President Zelensky, as you heard, has several reasons. First, it is necessary to deeply appreciate what the American people, American taxpayers, and President Trump did during his first term and what we have done since then. Therefore, some statements from Kyiv, frankly speaking, and insults towards President Trump were unacceptable - that is the first thing. Secondly, our own Secretary of the Treasury personally made a trip to offer the Ukrainians what can only be described as a historic opportunity. This means that America can invest together with Ukraine in their mineral resources, in their resources.
It is also worth mentioning that Trump intends to meet with the presidents of France and Great Britain - Macron and Starmer.
