00:00
A warm welcome for the US envoy to Ukraine from President Volodymyr Zelensky.
00:07
It's done little to thaw frosty ties between Kyiv and Washington.
00:11
By the end of their meeting there was no customary press conference after Keith Kellogg pulled
00:16
out of fielding questions from journalists.
00:19
No justifications from the White House for why the news conference was called off but
00:23
it comes amid the public war of words between President Trump and his Ukrainian counterpart.
00:29
Tensions reached an all-time high on Wednesday with Trump unleashing an online tirade against
00:33
Zelensky calling him a dictator and blaming Ukraine for the war.
00:38
Meanwhile the Ukrainian leader has hit back saying Trump is living in a misinformation
00:42
bubble.
00:43
The tit-for-tat came a day after Kyiv was left out of talks between top US and Russian
00:48
officials aimed at ending the war, reversing the three-year long US policy of isolating
00:53
Moscow.
00:54
Trump's number two, J.D. Vance, has been defending the president.
01:25
Another sticking point between the two sides is Zelensky's dismissal of an initial proposal
01:30
from the US calling for 50% ownership of Ukraine's rare earth minerals.
01:36
Zelensky stressing he will defend Ukraine and not sell his country.
