Footage from the White House has revealed US President Donald Trump raising his voice at Ukraine president Volodymyr Zelenskyy.
US President Donald Trump and President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelenskyy met at the White House’s Oval Office earlier today (February 28).
The Ukrainian president reflects on how ‘during the war, everyone has problems’ and just because they don’t ‘feel it now’ doesn’t mean they won’t in ‘the future’.
Trump butts in, arguing he’s ‘trying to solve a problem’ and saying Zelenskyy is in ‘no position’ to tell them ‘what [they’re] going to feel’.
Raising his voice, he continues: “You’re in no position to dictate what we’re going to feel. We’re going to feel very good. We’re going to feel very good and very strong.
“You’re right now, not in a very good position, you’ve allowed yourself to be in a very bad position.”
Trump warns: “You don’t have the cards right now. With us, you start having cards … You’re gambling with the lives of millions of people! You’re gambling with World War Three! You’re gambling with World War III. And what you’re doing is very disrespectful to the country – this country.”
And it’s not taken long for social media users to weigh in.
