Trump insults Zelensky after tense White House meeting

Donald Trump criticized Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky after a tense meeting at the White House. Trump called Zelensky a "big shot" and said their discussion "didn't work out exactly great," suggesting Zelensky had overstepped his position. The meeting was intended to strengthen ties, but it ended with a canceled joint press conference and a halted minerals deal. Tensions rose when Zelensky sought advice on engaging with Russia, prompting sharp responses from Trump and Vice-President JD Vance. Trump emphasized the need for peace, stating he was not interested in a prolonged conflict. He warned that without U.S. support, Zelensky would struggle in the ongoing war.
