KYIV, Ukraine -- KYIV, Ukraine (AP) — President Donald Trump on Sunday claimed Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy “hasn’t read” a U.S-authored peace proposal aimed at ending the Russia-Ukraine war.

In the past week, President Donald Trump and senior Republican lawmakers have presented starkly different views of a top U.S. national security challenge: Russia, its war in Ukraine and the threat it poses to Europe and the United States.

Zelensky has responded to the mounting pressure, reiterating that Ukraine will not concede land to its “aggressor.”

Ukraine's Zelensky said he cannot cede land to Russia as he has no legal or moral right to do so. Follow Newsweek's live coverage.

The comments come as Ukraine's president is set to meet U.K. Prime Minister Keir Starmer and other European leaders in London.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said his country would not give up territory under pressure from Moscow or to satisfy Washington in its push to resolve peace talks.
