Zelensky thanks world leaders after Trump-Vance accusations

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky responded to accusations from U.S. President Donald Trump and Vice President JD Vance about his lack of gratitude by thanking world leaders for their support on social media. This came after a tense meeting at the White House. During the meeting, Trump criticized Zelensky for not acknowledging U.S. military aid, leading to a shouting match. Zelensky left without finalizing a minerals deal and a planned press conference was canceled. Trump later claimed Zelensky was obstructing peace efforts. European leaders expressed solidarity with Zelensky following the confrontation. Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk and British Prime Minister Keir Starmer reaffirmed their support for Ukraine. In contrast, Russia celebrated the breakdown in U.S.-Ukrainian relations.
