The meeting was held to discuss the Russia-Ukraine War, but became tense due to differences between Trump and Zelancesi. Trump accused Zelansky of disrespectful behavior and warned him to gamble with the third world war. In response, Jailonski questioned Trump’s inclination towards Russia and advised not to rely on the promises of Russian President Vladimir Putin.
The agreement was not reached
After this dispute, the meeting suddenly ended and Jailonski left the White House without signing any mineral agreement. The reaction of Markarova shows the seriousness of this stressful atmosphere.
After this incident, US officials have decided to intensify the investigation of possible fraud and misuse in the assistance being given to Ukraine. Alan Musk and his ‘Department of Government Efficiency’ were already investigating these cases. At the same time, European leaders have shown their support for Zelancesi.
