Trump and Zelenskyy clash over Ukraine during meeting

U.S. President Donald Trump and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy had a heated meeting at the White House, resulting in Zelenskyy leaving early without a planned minerals deal. Tensions escalated as both leaders clashed over the war in Ukraine. Zelenskyy insisted on U.S. security guarantees for any peace deal with Russia, while Trump accused him of being "disrespectful" and "gambling with World War III." The meeting ended with Trump threatening to withdraw U.S. support if no agreement was reached. Following the confrontation, a scheduled press conference was canceled, and it remains uncertain if Zelenskyy's planned meetings with U.S. politicians will occur. This breakdown in diplomacy follows recent tensions between the two leaders.
