Ukraine's Zelensky believes he can salvage relationship with US

Ukraine’s Volodymyr Zelensky says he believes he can salvage his relationship with US President Donald Trump after their explosive meeting in the Oval Office, but that talks need to continue behind closed doors.

In an extraordinary meeting that was broadcast live on Friday, Trump accused Zelensky of being ungrateful for US aid, of showing disrespect to his country, and of risking World War III, casting into doubt Washington’s ongoing support for Ukraine.

Zelensky, talking to reporters after a summit with European leaders in London, says he does not think the US will stop its assistance to Ukraine, because as “leaders of the civilized world” they would not want to help Russian President Vladimir Putin.
