President Donald Trump and Vice President JD Vance turned on Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy during a remarkably tense exchange in the Oval Office on Friday, accusing him of failing to express sufficient gratitude for U.S. involvement and overplaying what they said was a weak diplomatic hand.

“You’ve done enough talking. You’re not winning this,” Trump said, raising his voice to Zelenskyy. “You have a damn good chance of coming out okay because of us.”

“I think it’s disrespectful for you to come into the Oval Office, litigating in front of the American media,” Vance told Zelenskyy.
