A meeting between Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky and U.S. President Donald Trump turned chaotic after a disagreement over diplomacy. Trump accused Zelensky of being "not ready for peace" and criticized him for "gambling with World War Three," leading to heightened tensions. The confrontation escalated when Vice President JD Vance confronted Zelensky about his treatment of him during the meeting. The planned signing of a minerals deal, which would have provided U.S. support to Ukraine, was abandoned amid the dispute. Following the incident, Zelensky expressed gratitude for U.S. support but refused to apologize to Trump. He emphasized the need for strong relations and security guarantees from the U.S. as Ukraine continues to face Russian aggression.
