Germany's foreign minister says Europe must put pressure on the US to stand by its European allies and warned against forcing Kyiv to surrender. Trump, however, said Ukraine has "no cards" to play in peace negotiations.

Summary

German Foreign Minister Annalena Baerbock warned that forcing Ukraine into an unfair peace deal would lead to more war, rejecting any agreement that concedes territory to Russia without security guarantees.

She urged Europe to pressure the U.S. to support its NATO allies. Meanwhile, Trump dismissed Zelensky’s role in peace talks, claiming Ukraine has “no cards” to negotiate.

U.S.-Ukraine relations remain strained, though some American officials signaled continued support.

Trump’s team insists Zelensky will eventually accept a U.S. rare earth mineral deal despite Kyiv’s current resistance.
