Trump says Zelenskiy comments harming peace talks with Russia

U.S. President Donald Trump chided Ukrainian leader Volodymyr Zelenskiy on Wednesday for saying Ukraine would not recognize Russia's occupation of Crimea, which he called an inflammatory statement that will make a peace deal with Russia harder to achieve. "This statement is very harmful to the Peace Negotiations with Russia," Trump said in a social media post. Zelenskiy on Tuesday reiterated that Ukraine will not recognize Russia's occupation of the Crimea.
