Trump criticizes Zelensky for lack of gratitude

President Trump and Vice President JD Vance criticized Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky during a tense meeting at the White House. They accused him of not showing enough gratitude for U.S. aid and pressured him to agree to a peace deal. The confrontation led to the cancellation of Zelensky's visit, which included a planned news conference and signing ceremony. Trump expressed frustration, stating that Zelensky was not ready for peace and suggested he should consider resigning. This public exchange marks a significant shift in U.S.-Ukraine relations, with Trump openly berating a leader of a country facing invasion. Such a display of anger from a U.S. president towards an ally is unprecedented.
