The first step to ending the war was supposed to come in the form of an economic agreement signed by the U.S. and Ukraine. That deal blew up last Friday when a friendly pre-signing sit-down turned into a clash between Mr. Zelensky and Mr. Trump, as well as Vice President J.D. Vance. President Trump posting on Truth Social, quote, This is the worst statement that could have been made by Zelensky, and America will not put up with it for much longer, a harbinger of what was to come later in the day.
