Trump Urges Ukraine to Replace Zelensky Over Refinery Strikes
US President Donald Trump has called on Ukraine to replace Volodymyr Zelensky with a new leader who would agree to end the war, criticizing Zelensky over strikes on Russian oil refineries that have contributed to high diesel prices ahead of the US midterm elections. Trump told reporters at the White House that he had told Zelensky to "do what you want" against Russia, but "don't hit refineries." Trump added that he believes "it's time for Ukraine to get a new president" who would agree to end the conflict. The remarks come as the US eases sanctions on Russian diesel, a move that Zelensky has condemned as a gift to Vladimir Putin.
