Zelensky thanks Trump for support after criticism — but tries to distance Ukraine from US peace plan

Ukrainian leader Volodymyr Zelensky thanked President Trump for his ongoing support after Trump blasted him for expressing “zero gratitude” — but Zelensky also appeared to reject the new US peace plan.

Earlier Sunday, Trump slammed Ukrainian leadership for expressing “zero gratitude” in regards to the White House-backed peace plan. ZUMAPRESS.com

“Ukraine is grateful to the United States, to every American heart, and personally to President Trump for the assistance that – starting with the Javelins – has been saving Ukrainian lives,” Zelensky said on X, referencing the American missiles.

While he heaped praise to Trump in a series of posts Sunday morning, Zelensky hesitated to endorse the White House’s controversial 28-point peace deal, which calls on Ukraine to make major concessions like giving up the Donbas region while having Russia give up very little.
