Johnson said Zelenskyy “needs to come to his senses and come back to the table in gratitude or someone else needs to lead the country to do that.”

Summary

House Speaker Mike Johnson suggested that Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy should either show more gratitude for U.S. aid or step down.

His comments follow a heated Oval Office meeting where Zelenskyy clashed with Trump and JD Vance over a U.S.-negotiated mineral rights deal.

Some Republicans, including Sen. Lindsey Graham, echoed calls for Zelenskyy’s resignation, while others, like Sen. James Lankford and Sen. Bernie Sanders, opposed the idea.

Johnson defended the deal, arguing it implicitly guarantees Ukraine’s security.
