A remarkable shouting match broke out in the Oval Office on Friday between President Donald Trump and his Ukrainian counterpart Volodymyr Zelensky, an extraordinarily fractious display that only underscored the deeply uncertain future of American assistance to Kyiv. Castigating Zelensky for not demonstrating enough gratitude for American support, Trump and his Vice President JD Vance raised their voices, accusing the besieged leader of standing in the way of a peace agreement. “You’re not really in a good position right now.” Trump said. “You’re gambling with World War III.” At one moment, Vance accused Zelensky of being “disrespectful” toward his American hosts. “You’re not acting all that thankful,” Trump added. “Have you said ‘thank you’ once?” Vance asked Zelensky.
