Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy and U.S. President Donald Trump clashed repeatedly on Friday, with Zelenskyy urging Trump to be cautious with Russia and Trump accusing him of being disrespectful, as simmering differences spilled into the open.
WASHINGTON - Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy and U.S. President Donald Trump clashed on Friday, with Zelenskyy questioning Trump’s tilt toward Russia and Trump accusing him of being disrespectful as their differences erupted into a shouting match.
“You don’t have the cards. Once we sign that deal, you’re in a much better position. But you’re not acting at all thankful, and that’s not a nice thing. I’ll be honest. That’s not a nice thing.” Vice President JD Vance interjected that it was disrespectful of him to come to the Oval Office to litigate his position, a point Trump agreed with.
How much the deal would be worth to the United States is not spelled out. Trump has said he expects to gain hundreds of billions of dollars. Zelenskyy has said he would not sign an agreement that would put his country in debt for generations.
