Donald Trump caused controversy after his heated meeting with President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky.
After a heated exchange with Zelensky on live television, Trump took to Truth Social to slam the Ukrainian president.
"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. 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," the POTUS claimed.
The European leader was escorted to a holding room in the West Wing after the interaction and the remainder of Zelensky's meetings at the White House were canceled.
National Security Advisor Michael Waltz and Secretary of State Marco Rubio had been the ones to inform the Ukrainian president that his visit to the White House had been cut short.
