An extraordinary scenario unfolded in the Oval Office of the White House today as President Donald Trump held a public discussion with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy. The two presidents and Vice President James D. Vance argued in front of open cameras.
Copy from the discussion:
Zelenskyy: «Can I ask you?»
Vance: «Sure, yeah, yeah.»
Zelenskyy: «OK.» (Talks about the Russian president Vladimir Putin.) «He broken the cease-fire, he killed our people, and he didn’t exchange prisoners. We signed the exchange of prisoners, but he didn’t do it. What kind of diplomacy, J.D. ( Vance), are you speaking about? What do you have – what do you – what do you mean?»
Vance: «I’m talking about the kind of diplomacy that’s going to end the destruction of your country.»
Zelenskyy: «Yeah, but he …»
Vance: «Mr. President – Mr. President, with respect, I think it’s disrespectful for you to come into the Oval Office to try to litigate this in front of the American media. Right now, you guys are going around and forcing conscripts to the front lines because you have manpower problems. You should be thanking the President for trying to bring an end to this conflict …»
Zelenskyy: «Have you ever been to Ukraine? That you say what problems we have.»
Vance: «I have been to …»
Zelenskyy: «Then come once.»
Vance: «I have actually – I have actually watched and seen the stories, and I know what happens, is you bringing people? – Bring them on a propaganda tour, Mr. President. Do you disagree that you’ve had problems …»
Zelenskyy: «What?»
Vance: «… bringing people into your military?»
Zelenskyy: «We have problems…»
Vance: «And do you think that it’s respectful to come to the Oval Office of the United States of America and attack the administration that is trying to prevent the destruction of your country? »
Zelenskyy: «I will answer. A lot of — a lot of questions. Let’s start from the beginning.»
Vance: «Sure.
Zelenskyy: « First of all, during the war, everybody has problems. Even you, but you don’t feel now, but you will feel it in the future. »
Zelenskyy: «God bless…»
Trump: «You don’t know that. And do you think that it’s respectful to come to the Oval Office of the United States of America and attack the administration that is trying to — trying to prevent the destruction of your country? »
Zelenskyy: «I will answer. A lot of — a lot of questions. Let’s start from the beginning.»
Trump: «Don’t tell us what we’re going to feel. We’re trying to solve a problem. Don’t tell us what we’re going to feel.»
Zelenskyy: «I’m not telling you. I’m answering …»
Trump: «You’re in no position to dictate that. Remember that. You’re in no position to dictate what we’re going to feel. You’ve allowed yourself to be in a very bad position, and he’s – happens to be right about it.»
Zelenskyy: «Donald Trump, president of the United States: You don’t know that. – from the very beginning of the war …»
Trump: «You’re not in a good position.»
Zelenskyy: «I was …»
Trump: «You don’t have the cards right now. With us, you start having cards, but right now, you don’t …»
Zelenskyy: «We are not playing cards. I am very serious, Mr. President, I’m very serious.»
Trump: «You’re gambling with the lives of millions of people.»
Zelenskyy: «You think …»
Trump: «You’re gambling with World War III.»
Zelenskyy: «What do you think …»
Trump: «You’re gambling with World War III. And what you’re doing is very disrespectful to the country, this country.»
Zelenskyy: «I’m…»
Trump: «Far more than a lot of people said they should have.»
Vance: «Have you said “Thank you” once in this entire meeting?»
Zelenskyy: «A lot of times.»
Vance: «No, in this entire meeting, have you said “thank you”? You went to Pennsylvania and campaigned for the opposition in October. Offer some words of appreciation for the United States of America and the President who’s trying to save your country.»
Zelenskyy: «Please, you think that if you will speak very loudly about the war, you can …»
Trump: «He’s not speaking loudly. He’s not speaking loudly. Your country’s in big trouble.»
Zelenskyy: «Can I answer?»
Trump: «We gave you … – through the stupid president (Joe Biden) $350 billion…»
Zelenskyy: «You voted …»
Trump: «Your men are brave, but they had to use our military … – If you didn’t have our military equipment …»
Zelenskyy: «You invited me to speak …»
Trump: «If you didn’t have our military equipment, this war would have been over in two weeks.»
Zelenskyy: «In three days. I heard it from Putin, in three days. This is something …»
Trump: «Maybe less.»
Zelenskyy: «In two weeks. Of course he has.»
Trump: «It’s going to be a very hard thing to do business like this. You have to be thankful. You don’t have the cards.»
Zelenskyy: «I’m thankful.»
Trump: «You’re buried there. Your people are dying. You’re running low on soldiers. Listen, it’s going to be a tough deal to make because the attitudes have to change. – And your people are very brave, but you’re either going to make a deal or we’re out.»
THE END
After the meeting president Trump wrote on his Truth Social platform «I have determined that President Zelenskyy is not ready for peace if America is involved. He disrespected the United States of America in its cherished Oval Office. He can come back when he’s ready for peace.
Zelenskyy and the Ukrainian delegation left without the economic deal that he came here to sign.»
Former Russian President and member of the Russian Security Council, Dmitry Medvedev tweeted: «The insolent pig finally got a proper slap-down in the Oval Office, and Donald Trump is right. The Kyiv regime is gambling with World War III.»
However, President Zelenskyy tweeted the following on his page; «Thank you America, thank you for your support, thank you for this visit. Thank you” @POTUS, Congress, and the American people. Ukraine needs just and lasting peace, and we are working exactly for that.»
