Trump and Zelenskyy engage in heated confrontation
A meeting on Friday between President Trump and Ukrainian President Zelenskyy turned confrontational, with both leaders shouting at each other. Trump and Vice President Vance criticized Zelenskyy for his handling of the war and accused him of disrespecting the U.S. Zelenskyy was in Washington to sign a deal for U.S. access to Ukraine's mineral resources. However, the meeting ended abruptly, and the planned news conference was canceled after Trump issued a statement questioning Zelenskyy's readiness for peace. During the exchange, Trump warned Zelenskyy to negotiate with Russia or risk losing U.S. support. Vance also confronted Zelenskyy, suggesting he should express gratitude to the U.S. for its efforts in the conflict.
