Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy and US President Donald Trump publicly clashed during their meeting at the White House on Friday. The altercation started when Zelenskyy asked US Vice President JD Vance about his views on diplomacy with Russia to end the war in Ukraine. Vance responded by criticizing the Ukrainian lead for attempting to discuss the matter in front of American media. Trump also reprimanded Zelenskyy for not showing gratitude and accused him of being unprepared for peace and disrespecting the United States. The US president warned that it would be challenging to continue their partnership if the Ukrainian leader did not change his approach. After the heated exchange, Trump ended the talks with Zelenskyy, who left the White House without signing a critical minerals deal that had been previously negotiated.
