“The agreement that’s on the table will be signed if the parties are ready,“ he told a late-night huddle with some UK media after a landmark summit in London.
“It is our policy to continue what happened in the past, we’re constructive,“ Zelensky said, quoted by the BBC.
Zelensky had travelled to Washington for a full White House visit on Friday to sign a US-Ukrainian deal for the joint exploitation of Ukraine’s vast mineral resources, as part of a post-war recovery in a US-brokered peace deal.
“You’re either going to make a deal or we’re out,“ Trump added. “And if we’re out, you’ll fight it out and I don’t think it’s going to be pretty.”
The proposal was to give Washington financial benefits for helping Ukraine in a truce, even if Trump has repeatedly refused to commit any US military force as a back-up to European troops who might act as peacekeepers.
Ukraine’s allies rallied around Zelensky on Sunday at a summit hosted by UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer who said many European leaders had pledged to spend more on security and assemble a coalition to defend any truce.
French President Emmanuel Macron, flying back from the London summit, said in a newspaper interview that France and Britain wanted to propose a partial one-month truce with Russia.
