You could have struck a deal”: Trump accuses Ukraine following US-Russian negotiations-BBC

Trump Blames Ukraine for Missing Deal

Following Volodymyr Zelensky’s statement that it was a “surprise” that his nation was not invited to peace negotiations in Saudi Arabia to end the conflict in Ukraine, Donald Trump has attacked Ukraine.

Trump claimed to be “disappointed” with Ukraine’s response and seemed to accuse the nation of inciting the conflict by claiming that it “could have made a deal.”

Nearly three years ago, Russia launched a full-scale invasion of Ukraine, which set off the conflict.

Following discussions with US Secretary of State Marco Rubio in Saudi Arabia, Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov stated that his nation would not accept peacekeeping troops from NATO nations in Ukraine under any peace agreement.The encounter in Riyadh was the first known in-person meeting between Russian and American delegations since Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine.
