Zelenskyy offered a major concession amid escalating tensions and false claims from Trump over the origin of the war.

Zelensky appeared to address criticisms by Trump, who has described the Ukrainian leader as a 'dictator' Ukraine's President Volodymyr Zelensky said Sunday he would be ready to give up the presidency if doing so would achieve a lasting peace for his country under the security umbrella of the Nato military alliance.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, when pressed at a news conference, said he is willing to give up the role in exchange for Nato membership for his country. His comments come in the wake of the largest single drone attack of the war, as Ukrainian officials say 267 were launched into the country earlier today, causing casualties.
