US Republicans suggest Zelensky may have to step down if peace deal to be reached

Top Washington officials have suggested that Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky might need to step down for a peace deal with Russia to be reached. This reflects a significant shift in the US approach to the war, particularly from Republicans, questioning Zelensky's ability to negotiate an end to the conflict.

These remarks follow a public disagreement after a televised meeting where Zelensky left the White House without signing a preliminary mineral rights pact. While European leaders continue to support Ukraine, some US Republicans are openly suggesting that a deal with Russia may be impossible with Zelensky still in power, implying a need for new leadership in Ukraine to facilitate negotiations.
