KYIV (Reuters) -Obon has gone on the streets of Kiev around President Voludmir Zelinski on Friday after he exchanged angry with US President Donald Trump at the White House.

Zelinski frankly challenged Trump because of his approach to Russian President Vladimir Putin at the meeting, and urged him to “not make concessions with a killer.”

Trump Zelinski was accused of risking the Third World War and being not beneficial to Washington for military aid provided to Ukraine.

Mila, Director of Human Resources who did not give a second name, said, “

“It is not Ukraine that picks up the gambling with World War III – we are more likely to use in this game as a bargaining drug,” said Oksana, business consultant.

On social media, Ukrainian officials and other prominent individuals also supported Zelinski, who called for unity in a stressful country for three years of the arduous battle.

“President Zellinski has the courage and strength to defend what is right,” said Foreign Minister Ukraine Andrei Sibha, who was at the meeting with Trump, on social media.

While most Reuters Kievans spoke to Ukraine will be able to continue anything lying down, some were concerned about the collapse of relations between the two leaders.

Andrei, a 59 -year -old university lecturer, said.

The meeting in Washington was aiming to calm the volatile personal relationships between Trump and Zelinski, as the two men were due to the signing of an agreement that would share profits from the deposits of critical raw materials in Ukraine with the United States

Instead, it quickly turned into a vicious manner in front of the cameras, as Trump clearly angered Zelinski by refusing Russia’s condemnation, which launched a widespread invasion of Ukraine three years ago and occupied parts of it since 2014.

“The agreement and the participation of the United States in the metal deal has settled on relations. Now it has become very frightening,” said Petro, a 20 -year -old student.

“I think it could have been dealt with in a more diplomatic way, but individually, I can understand Zelenskiy because the tone of the dialogue with Trump and Fans indicated that it would end like this.”
