With Ukraine's future in the balance, a high-stakes meeting on Friday between President Donald Trump and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy devolved into a shouting match.
The stunning exchange, before cameras and one unlike any other in the Oval Office in modern times, saw Trump and Vice President JD Vance rebuke Zelenskyy for his handling of the war, again falsely blaming the Ukrainian leader for a conflict that began when Russia's Vladimir Putin launched a full-scale invasion.
Zelenskyy was in Washington to sign an agreement that would give the U.S. access to Ukraine's mineral resources. But that was before boiling tensions exploded into public view as Trump and Vance accused Zelenskyy of being "disrespectful" toward the United States and the Trump administration.
Their news conference, where they were to sign the deal, was canceled. Trump issued a terse statement and Zelenskyy left shortly after.
"I have determined that President Zelenskyy is not ready for Peace if America is involved, because he feels our involvement gives him a big advantage in negotiations," Trump said in a social media post. "I don't want advantage, I want PEACE. He disrespected the United States of America in its cherished Oval Office. He can come back when he is ready for Peace."

“again falsely blaming”
no bias there.
Trump is trying to scare the EU. Might work.
He doesn’t want peace. He wants dough........................
I’m getting really tired of that stunt.
Of course he did.
The little fella is a con man.
But he is a one trick pony and his only con is taking the skim from playing the globalists for suckers in a war that he can never win.
The lamestream media is going nuts blaming Trump for this.
Big surprise!
I'm still guessing China made Zelenskyy an offer... and Zelenskyy's feeling more powerful than he is... what a fool. President Trump was right on ending the human suffering and doing it sooner rather than later. Zelenskyy doesn't care how many people die in this war... he's greedy and wants the rare eaeth for himself. What a fool.
but no body shouted
they just got serious
Three years ago he walked away from the deal of the century. The UK screwed that up. Boris Johnson scuttled it. Biden was looking on, with crap in his pants I’ll grant you . . .
Lamestream media SCREAMING as all of their 350,000 viewers COMBINED watch LOL, LOL, LOL they NO LONGER MATTER!! No one is watching they have become obsolete let them scream!!!
Z expected the same old okey-doke he would have gotten from biden.
Mr Z needs to learn to wait his turn before speaking.
