Nearly 20 world leaders, including British prime minister Keir Starmer, French president Emmanuel Macron, German chancellor Olaf Scholz and his successor Friedrich Merz, and European Commission president Ursula von der Leyen all declared their unflinching support for the Ukrainian leader after Mr Trump angrily ejected him from the vicious debate. Mr Trump and Mr Vance berated Mr Zelensky for “not saying thank you” The Ukrainian president was forced to leave the Oval Office without having signed the deal on minerals he had hoped would elicit US security guarantees. Mr Trump told his Ukrainian counterpart to return only when he wanted peace with Russia, prompting former Russian president Dmitry Medvedev to agree with Trump and label Mr Zelensky an “insolent pig” who “finally got a proper slap down in the Oval Office.” Hungary’s Viktor Orban was alone among Western politicians to back Mr Trump after the showdown, writing: “Strong men make peace, weak men make war.” He claimed President Trump stood bravely for peace “even if it was difficult for many to digest”. We were all right to help Ukraine and sanction Russia three years ago and to continue doing so.” European Commission president Ursula von der Leyen told Mr Zelensky: “Your dignity honours the bravery of the Ukrainian people.
