U.S. President Donald Trump is frustrated with the pace of talks on ending the war in Ukraine and President Volodymyr Zelenskiy is going in the wrong direction when it comes to negotiations, White House spokesperson Karoline Leavitt said on Wednesday.

"The president's frustrated. His patience is running very thin. He wants to do what's right for the world. He wants to see peace. He wants to see the killing stop, but you need both sides of the war willing to do that," Leavitt told reporters at the White House. "And unfortunately, President Zelenskiy seems to moving in the wrong direction."
