'That's not true': Reporter busts Trump in blatant lie as he tries to bulldoze Zelensky
Raw StoryCNN's chief international correspondent busted president Donald Trump in an easily disproven lie as he tries to bully Ukraine president Volodymyr Zelenskyy into handing over half of his country's resources. "Over the past two days, really, just to speak to Ukrainians who are oftentimes struggling to catch up with the things they're hearing from the Trump administration," Walsh said. RELATED: CNN host cuts off ex-lawmaker accusing Trump of being a Russian 'plant' Trump claims that Zelenskyy slept through a meeting with treasury secretary Scott Bessent and that other Ukrainian officials refused to sign an agreement that would give the U.S. control over – in perpetuity – 50 percent of Ukraine's rare earth minerals, oil and gas, and other natural resources, as well as a highly detailed list of infrastructure. "So quite specific, the notion that Zelensky was asleep, that president Donald Trump said there and didn't meet Bessent – well, that's not true.
