Trump accuses Zelensky of treating U.S. envoy 'rudely'

Raw Story  

U.S. President Donald Trump said Wednesday his treasury secretary was treated "rudely" during an official visit to Kyiv, accusing Ukrainian leader Volodymyr Zelensky of "sleeping" and failing to make a deal. US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent met Zelensky in Ukraine's capital last week to discuss granting Washington access to rare earth minerals in return for security support. "Scott Bessent actually went there and was treated rather rudely, because essentially, they told him 'no'," Trump told reporters on Air Force One. Zelensky said earlier Wednesday that Trump was living in a Russian "disinformation" bubble, responding to scathing comments by the U.S. president about Zelensky's popularity rating.
