Zelensky - Trump meeting.…just horrible. BBC news live.

[JanieJS]

Scary stuff.

I don't know what to say.

Oh....it's the jumper.

Cool.

Worth remembering neither Trump nor Vance have ever criticised Putin or his actions....

So maybe Trump is a Russian mole? Vance just seems to a far right thug... after all, we had a Russian spy that was in Mi5 and another who worked for the Royal Family, 5 or 6 all together....

Post from Zelensky:

Thank you America, thank you for your support, thank you for this visit.
Thank you @POTUS, Congress, and the American people.
Ukraine needs just and lasting peace, and we are working exactly for that

SKY News - could not bear to watch - just too awful. NOT the way to handle these very serious matters. God help us.

So we shouldn’t have ‘protested’ against Hitler? He was democratically elected.

I believe paying to arm Ukraine fight a war they can’t win against Russia makes us a target for Russia.
The sooner a ceasefire can be agreed on the better.

More shite.

You're right. He should have rocked up in a baseball cap with a kid slung around his shoulders.

We need to all get ourselves to London and update the protest signs for the visit.

Poor bugger.

Not simpering; diplomatically managing.

I don’t think I have ever wished someone would drop dead before but I am at that point right now.
It wouldn’t be the end of the maga nutters but, to paraphrase churchill, it would be the end of the beginning.

Trump and Putin likely want to split Ukraine for their resources. That's what will motivate a ceasefire. Ukraine will not longet exist.

What a disgraceful thing to say.

Young men have always had to go to war, the last 80 years have been highly unusual in that respect, at least for us in Western Europe. If you haven't got security, then all the other aspects of life can go up in a puff of smoke. Yes, if it came to it, I would fully expext my children, and mysrlf for that matter, to fight for their country if needed and if it came to it, in a European army for Ukraine or other Eastern European countries.

They ambushed Zelensky, they would of never talked to Putin like that ever!

Why?

Chamberlain.

Zelensky did brilliantly and really held his own. I could expect this debacle from Trump but not from Vance.

They have really embarrassed themselves.

They shouldn’t hardball him like this. Get him back in Vogue magazine and give him the softball 🙏

Absolutely appalling behaviour from Trump and Vance. Please someone give him a history book and direct him to the chapter on the Sudetenland.

It was awful, I didn’t expect to feel so upset. I’m just dumbfounded that this is what politics has become.

All I thought was how far is Vance up Trump’s backside?

What a suck up.

At least they can't claim that he hasn't said thank you now.

Why doesn’t Zelensky want a ceasefire?
so many young lives lost.
