When Zelenski says he can't give away land, that also means Russia can't just seize their land, including Crimea. trump is still bellyaching that Ukraine hasn't given up on getting it back. "Ukrainian resistance to permanently losing Crimea was making “it so difficult to settle this war,” warning that Ukraine risked losing “the whole country.” Its most certainly not trump's right to give away Ukrainian land.

Face it, donnie--your plan sucked, and nobody wanted it except you and Vlad.
