As US and Ukrainian officials prepare to meet in Saudi Arabia this week, President Donald Trump has privately made clear to aides that a signed minerals deal between Washington and Kyiv won\u2019t be enough to restart aid and intelligence sharing, according to an administration official and another US official. Trump wants the deal, which would give the US a stake in Ukraine\u2019s mineral resources, signed. But he also wants<\/a> to see a change in Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy\u2019s attitude toward peace talks, the officials said, including a willingness to make concessions such as giving up territory to Russia. Trump also wants Zelenskyy to make some movement toward elections in Ukraine and possibly toward stepping down as his country\u2019s leader, the officials said.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
