Social media broke out in chaos when the Oval Office meeting between Volodymyr Zelenskyy and Donald Trump got into a heated “shouting -match”.

The US President Donald Trump and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy contested a heated exchange in the White House on Friday and coordinated against the war strategy of Ukraine, the US military aid and the efforts to end the conflict.

Zelenskyys meeting with Trump turns into “Shouting Match”

The meeting between the Ukrainian President and the US President in the White House on Friday took an unexpected turn and quickly escalated to a tense confrontation when Trump and Vice President JD Vance Zelssskyy criticized his position.

The press release event took an unexpected turn when Trump was interviewed to his attitude towards Russian President Vladimir Putin, a leader with whom he was often accused of being too friendly. After Trump recently referred to Zelenskyy as a “dictator”, he defended his approach and explained that he had “on both” in search of peace. Vance supported Trump's position and argued that the confrontational approach of the former US President Joe Biden only escalated the conflict to Putin. “The way to peace and the path to prosperity may be diplomacy,” said Vance.

The consequences of the chaotic meeting were immediately and seriously. No agreements were signed, no joint explanation was submitted, and Zelenskyy's delegation was abruptly rejected from the White House. When the global reactions flow in, Trump was firmly criticized, Zelenskyy called “disrespectful” and questioned his commitment to peace.
