Former Treasury Secretary Lawrence Summers denounced the pressure being applied by the Trump administration on Ukraine to turn over a share of its natural resources to the US. Meanwhile, Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent characterized the visit of Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy to the White House on Friday as “unacceptable.” “It’s very difficult to do an economic deal with a leader who doesn’t want to do a peace deal,” Bessent said Friday in an interview with Bloomberg Television.
