In an unprecedented argument live on TV, US President Donald Trump told his Ukrainian counterpart on Friday he should "be thankful," accusing Volodymyr Zelenskyy of being "disrespectful" and "gambling with World War III".

Euronews correspondent Sasha Vakulina, reporting from the Ukrainian capital Kyiv, said "the feeling here on the ground in Ukraine, in Kyiv is different. People are feeling that it is the Ukrainians who have been disrespected."

Vakulina said there are "big concerns" regarding US aid to Ukraine, and referred back to 2019 when Donald Trump allegedly withheld support to Kyiv in an attempt to pressure Zelenskyy to investigate his political opponent, Joe Biden, and his son, Hunter.
