Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky on Thursday said he could not legally negotiate ownership of the occupied Zaporizhzhia nuclear power station, which President Donald Trump suggested Washington could take over.

Trump said the United States could own and run Ukraine's nuclear power plants, the latest in a series of proposals he has made to the war-torn country, reliant on Washington's support to fend off the Russian invasion.

"We will not discuss it. We have 15 nuclear power units in operation today. This all belongs to our state," Zelensky told a news conference in Oslo, where he held talks with Norway's Prime Minister Jonas Gahr Store.
