The Trump/Zelenskyy Face Off and Fall Out

President Volodymyr Zelenskyy of Ukraine joined President Donald Trump and Vice President J.D. Vance in the Oval Office. It did not go well.

What does Zelenskyy want? What he wants is for the US to put troops on the ground in Ukraine, permanently. Again, the mineral rights deal would have given him some of the safety he wanted. But Trump ran on "no more forever wars," and Zelenskyy must know this. Asking him to go against his campaign promises, via a scolding, was a nutty thing to do. Guaranteed failure for Zelenskyy.

The UK says they'll put troops on the ground, but now caveat that by saying they need America, too. Europe's survival against Russia means they need to pay up and put up. Perhaps they will. But they know without US backing their options are limited.
