(opens the publisher’s site)US President Donald Trump and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy clashed Monday over peace talks as Washington disputed arms-shipment delays and NATO membership.

- Trump said the US had given Ukraine a great deal but received nothing in return.
- Vice President JD Vance said Washington has no formal alliance with Kyiv and that Ukraine should not join NATO.
- Zelenskyy told US senators that the Pentagon was delaying delivery of missiles Kyiv had paid for and that intelligence sharing had been restricted.
