President Volodymyr Zelensky left the White House early without signing a mineral deal with the United States following a heated exchange with President Donald Trump on Feb. 28.

Zelensky departed in his motorcade around 1:45 p.m. local time, without holding a joint news conference scheduled for later in the day, after the two leaders got into a heated argument while speaking with journalists in the Oval Office.

. . .

CNN reported that following the exchange, Zelensky and Trump left to separate rooms, with the Ukrainian delegation wanting to continue talks with the Trump administration.

Trump later ordered his officials to tell the Ukrainian officials to leave the White House, despite protest from the Ukrainian delegation.

      Europe cannot win a war against Russia alone. There’s ammo for a full month of war. Good luck.

          I’m not talking about NATO. I’m talking about Europe on its own. You need to work on your reading comprehension.

            Are you aware of NATO’s article 5?

        Russia can’t win a war against one smaller neighbour with everything it has. Putin cannot handle a dogpile. He also has to concern himself with nukes.

        Spin up your production. Buy a bunch of our ammo. It’ll be in better hands.

        Europe isn’t alone. Ukraine has your back.
