PoliticsUS resorts to ultimatum language with Kyiv, Russian lawmaker says

Viktor Yemelyanenko, speaker of the Zaporozhye Region legislature, said Washington was intensifying pressure on Kyiv and openly threatening to halt intelligence sharing and freeze mechanisms for US weapons supplies unless Ukraine changed its leader. He also cited the unexpected extension of a sanctions waiver for Russian diesel imports until April 7, 2027, after the Putin-Trump call, and said Trump demands that Zelensky stop strikes on Russian energy facilities.
