'Zelenskyy is not ready for Peace': Trump signals he is ready to abandon Ukraine

Shortly after his tumultuous meeting with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy on Friday, President Donald Trump issued a statement indicating that he would abandon Ukraine, which he accused of not wanting to make "peace" with Russia.

"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," Trump wrote on his Truth Social page Friday. "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."

Trump and Vice President J.D. Vance each took turns berating Zelenskyy to his face on Friday, with Vance calling the Ukrainian leader ungrateful for the assistance America has given and Trump accusing Zelenskyy of having a supposedly irrational hatred of Russian President Vladimir Putin, who has been bombing and invading his country for more than three years now.
