Lawmakers criticize Zelenskyy after Trump meeting fallout

A recent Oval Office meeting between President Donald Trump and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has sparked criticism among U.S. lawmakers. Many Republicans, who previously supported Ukraine, are now scolding Zelenskyy after a heated exchange. Key Republicans expressed pride in Trump’s stance, with some calling the meeting a "disaster" and suggesting it may harm future relations with Ukraine. Others, who have long opposed U.S. aid to Ukraine, praised Trump for his approach. Democrats condemned the meeting, accusing Trump and Vice President JD Vance of undermining support for Ukraine. They emphasized the importance of continued U.S. backing for Ukraine amid ongoing Russian aggression.
