Donald Trump was blunt to the point of insult, telling Mr Zelensky – whose country was the victim of aggression by a man who threatened nuclear armageddon – that it was he who was “gambling with World War Three”. “Make a deal or we’re out,” the leader of the free world barked at Mr Zelensky, who retained his composure throughout. In the Oval Office, Mr Trump tried to persuade Mr Zelensky, who knows better than anyone how unreliable Vladimir Putin can be, that the presence of Mr Trump is sufficient security guarantee because the Russians "respect me", in a way they did not respect Barack Obama or Joe Biden. Contrary to some of his own apologists, Mr Trump has now publicly ruled out Ukraine becoming a member of Nato, and his reluctance to provide anything tangible in the way of a “backstop” security guarantee was also painfully obvious during his public appearances with Sir Keir Starmer.
