U.S. President Donald Trump commented on his meeting with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky.

Trump emphasized that he determined Zelensky is not ready for peace if the U.S. is involved, and stated:

"Today we had a very meaningful meeting at the White House. Many things were learned that could never be understood without speaking under such pressure. It’s incredible what can surface through emotions, and I determined that President Zelensky is not ready for peace if the U.S. gets involved because he believes our involvement gives him a major advantage in negotiations. I don’t want an advantage, I want peace. He showed disrespect to the Oval Office. He can return when he is ready for peace."
