Just months after a tense Oval Office clash that ended in a shouting match, President Trump and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky struck a surprisingly cooperative tone in their latest White House meeting. Zelensky, criticized earlier for his military-style attire, appeared in a suit jacket, signaling a diplomatic gesture while keeping his wartime identity. This softer approach set the stage for lighthearted exchanges with Trump and multilateral talks joined by European leaders. Discussions centered on a potential peace deal with Russia, with Trump pushing for trilateral negotiations.

00:00Thank you very much. It's an honor to have the President of Ukraine with us.
00:05Thank you very much. It's an honor to have President Zelensky of Ukraine.
00:15You can never have a real democracy with mail-in ballots.
00:20You're not winning. You're not winning this.
00:22You have a damn good chance of coming out okay because of us.
00:26Well, I know Ukrainian people. I've known many over the years.
00:29They're great people. They're smart. They're energetic.
00:33They love their country.
00:35We gave you, through the stupid President, $350 billion.
00:39We gave you military equipment.
00:41And you men are brave, but they had to use our military.
00:44If you didn't have our military equipment,
00:47if you didn't have our military equipment,
00:50this war would have been over in two weeks.
00:53In three days. I heard it from Putin. In three days.
00:56This is something new. Maybe less.
00:58In two weeks. Of course, yes.
00:59It's going to be a very hard thing to do business like this.
01:02I tell you.
01:03To say thank you.
01:04I said a lot of times, thank you.
01:06To American people.
01:07Except that there are disagreements.
01:09And let's go litigate those disagreements,
01:11rather than trying to fight it out in the American media when you're wrong.
01:15We know that you're wrong.
01:16But you see, I think it's good for the American people to see what's going on.
01:19I think it's very important. That's why I kept this going so long.
01:24You have to be thankful.
01:25Do you ever, why don't you wear a suit?
01:28Why don't you wear a suit?
01:29You're the highest level in this country's office,
01:32and you refuse to wear a suit.
01:34Just want to see if you, do you own a suit?
01:36Yeah.
01:37You have problems.
01:38A lot of Americans have problems with you.
01:40Really?
01:41I don't have such.
01:42I will wear a costume after this war will finish.
01:46Okay.
01:47Yes.
01:48Maybe one.
01:49Maybe something like yours.
01:50Yes, sir.
01:51Maybe something better.
01:53I don't know.
01:54We will see.
01:55Maybe something cheaper than, yeah.
01:59Can you explain the decision to offer Ukraine
02:05to gain Article 5 life security guarantees,
02:08but stop short of pushing for their full membership?
02:11Yeah.
02:12Well, we haven't done anything on that yet.
02:14If you look back, and you go back long before President Putin,
02:19it was always a statement that they would never allow Ukraine into NATO.
02:22So that was a statement that was made.
02:24But we haven't discussed any of that yet.
02:26We're going to be discussing it today.
02:28But we will give them very good protection, very good security.
02:30That's part of it.
02:31And the people that are waiting for us,
02:34they are, I think they're very like-minded.
02:36They want to help out all of us.
02:38Well, I don't know if you define it that way,
02:40but NATO-like.
02:41I mean, we're going to give,
02:42we have people waiting in another room right now.
02:45They're all here from Europe,
02:47biggest people in Europe.
02:48And they want to give protection.
02:50They feel very strongly about it.
02:51And we'll help them out with that.
02:53I think it's very important.
02:54I think it's very important to get the deal done.
02:57You've been involved with the peacekeeping in Ukraine
03:02since your first day in the administration.
03:05What would you say to the Ukrainian people right now
03:08who are suffering under the Russian attacks
03:11and hoping that the American people will stand with them?
03:15Well, I know Ukrainian people.
03:17I've known many over the years.
03:18They're great people.
03:19They're smart.
03:20They're energetic.
03:22They love their country.
03:24I mean, they love their country.
03:25And we want to get this war ended.
03:27That's all I can do.

03:30but I love all people.
