WASHINGTON, Feb 20 (Reuters) - Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy needs to come back to the negotiating table and strike a critical minerals deal that recognizes the amount of aid the U.S. has provided the country in its fight against Russia, White House national security adviser Mike Waltz said on Thursday.
Zelenskiy on Wednesday rejected U.S. demands for $500 billion in mineral wealth from Ukraine to repay Washington for wartime aid, saying the United States had supplied nowhere near that sum so far and offered no specific security guarantees in the agreement.
"He needs to come back to the table," Waltz said of Zelenskiy.
