Zelenskyy Says Trump Is Pushing Ukraine to Capitulate to Russia

Zelenskyy said Washington has slowed Starlink service and delayed Patriot interceptors as he warned Ukraine is being pushed to make concessions.

  • Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy accused Donald Trump of pressuring Kyiv to surrender to Russia, claiming steps have been taken to convince Ukraine to capitulate amid escalating tensions.
  • The White House struck a deal with Vladimir Putin to waive sanctions in exchange for diesel supplies, aiming to curb global energy prices despite criticism from Ukraine over the arrangement.
  • Zelenskyy cited deliberate slowing of Starlink internet speeds crucial for Ukrainian troops and delayed deliveries of only 12 Patriot interceptor missiles monthly, roughly a quarter of the pace under Joe Biden.
  • Despite friction, Zelenskyy remains in contact with Trump's peace envoys Jared Kushner and Steve Witkoff, discussing another meeting likely later this week while hoping for improved relations after Nov. 3.
  • Uncertainty deepens as Putin proposed a summit with Trump and China's Xi Jinping next month, while Zelenskyy warned risks have reached "tsunami proportions" and expressed concern the war could end at Ukraine's expense.
