Good morning.
The Ukrainian president, Volodymyr Zelenskyy, hailed “three years of resistance … three years of absolute heroism of Ukrainians,” as foreign leaders arrived in Kyiv to mark the third anniversary of Russia’s full-scale invasion.
It came after Zelenskyy said he was not willing to cave in to intense pressure from Donald Trump to sign a $500bn minerals deal. “I’m not signing something that 10 generations of Ukrainians are going to pay later,” he said.
Zelenskyy said he was ready to quit as president if it meant “peace for Ukraine” or membership of Nato, which the US opposes.
