'Trump didn't like that': Phone call with European leaders leaves president fuming

https://www.rawstory.com/trump-russia-ukraine-war-2673881869/

Zelensky warned Trump during the call, which lasted more than an hour, that "Putin cannot be trusted," according to a knowledgeable source, who added that Trump told the leaders that land swaps would be necessary for a peace deal.

"Trump said it's Vladimir and Volodymyr who have to discuss territories with each other, not him," the source said.

Merz and NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte were both "very active" on the call, according to the source, while Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni "raised some good points" and Polish President Karol Nawrocki "reminded Trump of the Battle of Warsaw, exactly 105 years ago, when Poland fought together with Ukrainians against the Bolsheviks in Russia" – but one leader angered the U.S. president.

"A source who was on the call said Macron took 'very tough' positions and told Trump 'a meeting is a very big thing to give to Putin,'" Axios reported, quoting the source. "'Trump didn't like that.'"
