Hungary threatens Kyiv with electricity cut after Ukrainian attacks shut down Russia oil imports

Zelensky leaves White House unscathed as he buys more time
WASHINGTON — Unlike the shockingly ill-tempered previous meeting in February, US President Donald Trump and Ukraine's President Volodymyr Zelensky seemed determined not to look confrontational - despite their remaining differences.Zelensky wore a collared suit (although not of the classical variety), and Trump complimented his attire. The Ukrainian president also repeatedly said "thank you", which must have pleased his host, too.At his opening appearance in the Oval Office, Zelensky spoke little - or maybe he was not keen to, fearing that what he had to say was different from what Trump wanted to hear.Differences showed later, when the US and Ukrainian presidents appeared before journalists together with European leaders.German Chancellor Friedrich Merz and French President...
