No Deal Yet: Trump Urges Zelensky to Make Deal with Russia as Putin Leaves Alaska

U.S. President Donald Trump has said that the future of a peace agreement in Ukraine now depends on President Volodymyr Zelensky. He made the statement in a Fox News interview after his three-hour summit with Russian President Vladimir Putin in Anchorage, Alaska. Trump Urges Zelensky to 'Make a Deal' “The deal on Ukraine now depends on Zelensky,” Trump told Fox News. He advised the Ukrainian leader to reach an agreement with what he called a “mighty power,” stressing that Russia is a much larger country while Ukraine “is not.” According to Trump, Zelensky should recognize that the war is devastating and that a settlement would be a major achievement for both himself and Putin. “Forget about me,” Trump said. “For them, it would be historic.”
