U.S.-Ukraine Tensions Rise After Trump-Zelenskyy Confrontation
A major agreement between the United States and Ukraine was suddenly canceled after U.S. President Donald Trump and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy had a heated argument in the Oval Office on February 28. The unexpected shouting match has increased tensions between the two countries.
The deal, focused on important mineral resources, was expected to boost Ukraine’s economy and strengthen ties with the U.S. Now, its cancellation leaves many Ukrainians worried about their future.
In Kharkiv, young people shared their concerns. “We thought this deal would bring new jobs and opportunities,” said Dmytro, a recent graduate. “But now, everything feels uncertain.”
Natalia, a high school student, added, “Our country needs support to grow. This disagreement could set us back.”
As the situation unfolds, Ukrainians and the international community are watching closely, hoping for a solution that will bring back cooperation and stability.
