Trump says Ukraine should elect a new president
- On Saturday, President Donald Trump called for Ukraine to elect a new leader, accusing President Volodymyr Zelenskyy of refusing to negotiate an end to the war with Russia during White House remarks.
- Following his Friday announcement, Trump reached a commercial agreement with President Vladimir Putin to supply over 300,000 tons of diesel immediately, with the U.S. Treasury issuing a temporary sanctions waiver through April 2027 to facilitate deliveries.
- Trump argued Ukrainian refinery strikes cause global diesel shortages and warned Zelenskyy to "better damn well stop" targeting Russian energy infrastructure, claiming the attacks harm American farmers and ranchers facing high fuel costs.
- Russian glide bombs struck residential buildings in Zaporizhzhia on Saturday, killing at least 20 people including three children, an attack Zelenskyy linked to the easing of sanctions pressure on Moscow.
- European allies expressed dismay at the agreement, with Swedish Prime Minister Ulf Kristersson noting energy revenues fund Russia's war and the European Union planning its most comprehensive sanctions package yet on Monday, targeting 1,600 listings.
