Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy is in Saudi Arabia for crucial discussions with Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman regarding the ongoing conflict with Russia. This visit comes as Ukraine faces increased military pressure from Russia and political maneuvering from the U.S., where President Trump has intensified demands for peace negotiations. Despite the lack of U.S. security guarantees, Zelenskyy expresses willingness to negotiate mineral wealth deals, while a separate Ukrainian delegation will meet with U.S. officials aiming to stabilize relations after previous tensions. The diplomatic efforts are critical for Ukraine's international support.
"On our side, we are fully committed to constructive dialogue, and we hope to discuss and agree on the necessary decisions and steps, Zelenskyy said in a post on X."
"The White House has framed Trump's Ukraine policy as intended to achieve a lasting peace but the president has focused primarily on pressuring Zelenskyy to hand over his country's mineral wealth to the US."
