US President Donald Trump reportedly pressured Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy to accept Russia's terms for ending the war during a heated White House meeting. Trump warned that Russian President Vladimir Putin had threatened to 'destroy' Ukraine if it did not comply, and repeatedly echoed Putin's rhetoric throughout the encounter. The meeting was marked by shouting matches, with Trump dismissing Ukrainian battlefield maps and demanding the surrender of the entire Donbas region. Zelenskyy, who had come to Washington seeking long-range missiles, left empty-handed as Trump declined his request. European officials briefed on the meeting described Trump's stance as closely aligned with Putin's, including repeating claims that the war was a 'special operation.' Putin's latest proposal would see Ukraine surrender parts of Donbas in exchange for small areas in Kherson and Zaporizhzhia, signaling a slight shift from previous demands.
