‘My father died. I have to be thankful?’ Ukraine supporters across Europe and the U.S. take to the streets to protest Trump’s treatment of Zelensky

Protesters took to the streets around the world this weekend after talks between U.S. President Donald Trump and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky ended in a heated confrontation on Friday. What was meant to be the signing of a mineral resources agreement instead turned into a shouting match involving Trump, Zelensky, and U.S. Vice President J.D. Vance as the two American leaders accused the Ukrainian president of failing to show sufficient gratitude for Washington’s aid to his war-torn country. The deal’s ultimately went unsigned, and Trump reportedly asked Zelensky to leave the White House, casting doubt on the future of U.S. support for Ukraine.
