Donald Trump has erupted again at Ukraine, vowing to get America’s money back after the country spent hundreds of billions of dollars in military aid to Kyiv. The US President also claimed a deal with Ukraine was nearly signed.
However, inside sources revealed to Sky News that President Zelenskyy is not ready and willing to accept the agreement that has been drafted.
“I want them to give us something for all the money we put up,” Mr Trump told the CPAC conference. “So we’re asking for rare earth and oil – anything we can get!”
The president claimed the US had given $350bn in aid, explaining that, unlike European countries, it was not a loan and that they were due compensation.
“We’re going to get our money back because it’s not fair,” President Trump continued, adding that they are “pretty close to a deal. We better be close to a deal”.
Even though the US believes the deal is nearly done, the Ukrainian source said there were “a number of problematic issues” preventing the signing. They said drafts did not “reflect a partnership in the agreement and contain only unilateral commitments by Ukraine”.
