Zelensky had greeted Trump with a handshake at the door, but the cordiality quickly evaporated in the Oval Office as Zelensky pushed back on compromising with Russia in peace talks.
A viral image showed Ukraine’s ambassador to the US, Oksana Markarova, sitting in the Oval Office with her head bowed, her hand covering her eyes in disbelief as Trump shouted over Zelensky.
Trump and Vance blasted Zelensky for failing to show gratitude for America’s military support, demanding that Ukraine cut a deal with Russian leader Vladimir Putin.
Trump didn’t hold back, directing his fury straight at Zelensky, saying: “You’re gambling with millions of people seeing you gambling with World War Three.
THIS is the moment tensions exploded in the White House as Donald Trump yelled at Volodymyr Zelensky, accusing him of “gambling with World War 3” and labelling him “ungrateful.”.
