US President Donald Trump has urged Ukraine to choose new leadership, saying Volodymyr Zelenskyy should negotiate a deal with Russia to stop the fighting.
Trump also blamed Zelenskyy for rising diesel prices in the United States, warning Kyiv to cease hitting Russian oil refineries he argues could deliver American fuel.
The statements came on 10 October 2026, the same day Britain's Prime Minister held a separate phone call with Zelenskyy, according to the UK government.
