Trump and Zelenskyy’s Oval Office meltdown will fill Putin with glee
It is not hard to imagine that the US president and his deputy were spoiling for a fight with the Ukrainian leader
❗️ After the clash, Trump gathered his key advisors in the Oval Office, reports CNN. Zelensky and his team weren’t even allowed to have lunch. Trump told them it was time to leave. A White House official said Ukrainians wanted to continue talks, but were denied.
🇳🇴🇺🇦 Norwegian PM Jonas Gahr Støre expressed support for Ukraine amid the White House scandal.
“What we saw today at the White House is serious and unsettling. Ukraine still needs U.S. support, and its security and future are important to both the U.S. and Europe,” he said.
Støre called Trump’s claim that Zelensky is “gambling with World War III” deeply unfounded, distancing himself from it.

"To restart talks, he (Zelensky) has to say: 'I want to make peace'. Not Putin this Putin that. People are dying, he doesn't have the cards, you must understand".
The audicity to think he can lecture Zelensky on what to do. In this tempo, the world will abandon the US.

"Zelensky wants to fight, fight, fight. We want to end the war. They ask me: Why do you care about Ukrainian and Russian soldiers? I care about all of them. If we don't do anything he (Zelensky) will have to make peace, its very simple."
