Trump Threatens to Cut U.S. Aid to Ukraine After Heated Clash with Zelensky
President Donald Trump warned Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky on Friday that U.S. support for Ukraine could be at risk following a tense and confrontational Oval Office meeting. The discussion, initially meant to finalize a resource-sharing agreement, quickly escalated into a heated exchange over Ukraine's war efforts and continued U.S. assistance.
During the meeting, Trump told Zelensky that Ukraine was in no position to make demands and suggested that future negotiations could be in jeopardy unless attitudes changed. Vice President JD Vance also pressed Zelensky on whether he had shown sufficient gratitude for U.S. support, leading to a tense back-and-forth.
At one point, Trump directly challenged Zelensky's requests for security guarantees, warning that continued U.S. aid was not assured. "You don't have the cards right now," Trump said, making it clear that Ukraine's leverage in negotiations was limited.
Zelensky pushed back, emphasizing Russia's continued aggression and the need for strong international support. When he questioned whether Vance had ever visited Ukraine, the vice president dismissed the comment, accusing Ukraine of mismanaging aspects of the war effort.
The meeting ended abruptly without a finalized agreement, and Trump ordered Zelensky to leave the White House. A planned joint press conference was canceled, and a joint statement was scrapped.
Shortly after kicking Zelensky out of the White House, Trump posted on social media, stating that the Ukrainian leader had "disrespected" the U.S. and would only be invited back when he was "ready for peace."
Zelensky later posted on X, thanking the American people and government for their support and reiterating Ukraine's commitment to securing a lasting peace.
The Oval Office confrontation has raised concerns about the future of U.S. military and financial assistance to Ukraine. European officials, who closely followed the meeting, reportedly discussed the potential fallout and what it could mean for NATO’s support of Ukraine.
With no agreement reached and tensions running high, the coming weeks could determine whether the U.S. maintains its current level of support for Ukraine or shifts its stance on the war.
