US President Donald Trump Thursday responded to the overnight Russian attacks on Ukraine’s Kyiv, saying he is “not happy,” and asked President Vladimir Putin to ‘stop’.
“I am not happy with the Russian strikes on KYIV. Not necessary, and very bad timing,” Trump wrote in a social media post a day after expressing frustration that it was Ukraine’s leader who was hampering peace talks on ending Russia’s war in Ukraine.

Earlier, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said that Ukraine has done as much as possible to progress in talks with the US signing a memorandum on minerals, after removing provisions that would contradict its constitution.

He says Ukraine does not “see strong pressure on Russia now” nor new sanctions against Moscow, despite its unwillingness to progress the talks.
“We believe that with greater pressure on the Russian Federation, we will be able to bring our sides closer,” he says.
