US President Donald Trump has demanded that Ukraine compensate the US for the aid provided during its war with Russia. Speaking at CPAC, Trump criticized past administrations for excessive spending on Ukraine, calling it unfair. He proposed that Kiev repay the US with rare-earth minerals and oil. His remarks come amid growing tensions with Ukrainian President Vladimir Zelensky, who recently rejected a minerals deal with Washington. Trump also accused Zelensky of mismanaging American funds and missing peace opportunities with Moscow. The issue has further strained US-Ukraine relations ahead of upcoming elections.
