Zelenskyy Considers Resignation for NATO Peace

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has expressed his willingness to step down if it would lead to peace in Ukraine or NATO membership. This statement comes amidst heightened tensions with U.S. President Donald Trump, who has labeled Zelensky a 'dictator' due to the lack of elections under martial law. Zelensky's comments, made on the third anniversary of Russia's invasion, reflect his desire for a stronger U.S. partnership beyond mediation. Trump's administration has shifted from strong support for Ukraine to proposing deals involving Ukraine's natural resources in exchange for aid. Zelensky has rejected these terms as unrealistic, asserting that the actual U.S. aid is lower than claimed. Despite challenges, NATO membership remains a key objective for Ukraine's security.
