Trump and Zelenskyy Clash in Heated Oval Office Meeting Over Ukraine-Russia Peace Talks

President Trump accuses Ukrainian President Zelenskyy of disrespect and unwillingness to negotiate peace, signaling potential withdrawal of U.S. support.

A contentious Oval Office meeting between President Trump and President Zelenskyy ended in verbal clashes over Ukraine's approach to peace talks with Russia.
Trump criticized Zelenskyy for allegedly leveraging U.S. involvement to gain an advantage in negotiations, calling it disrespectful to America.
The U.S. president warned Zelenskyy to accept a peace deal on terms dictated by the U.S. or risk losing American support in the conflict with Russia.
Vice President J.D. Vance echoed Trump's criticism, accusing Zelenskyy of ungratefulness for U.S. aid and undermining efforts to prevent Ukraine's destruction.
A planned joint press conference was abruptly canceled after the heated exchanges, leaving the future of U.S.-Ukraine relations uncertain.
