Compilation of Zelensky and Trump's statements during their talks at The White House earlier today.

It started off in a good mood with Trump shaking hands with Zelensky saying "He's all dressed up today". He later on complimented Zelensky's clothing again.

Zelensky said "I think Trump will not stop supporting Ukraine," while Trump said "We will have arms to [send to] Ukraine. Hopefully we won't have to send much," however he reiterated his belief that a ceasefire agreement is inevitable.

Trump then goes on to say that Zelensky is a "great guy", and that Ukrainian soldiers have been "unbelievably brave", crediting Zelensky, his generals and soldiers. "It's been very hard fighting, very tough fighting. You have to be very proud of them," he said.

Then Zelensky and JD Vance began arguing, with Vance claiming Ukraine has no men left. Trump intervenes and comments that Zelensky should be grateful to them (Trump and Vance).

Trump then goes on to say that Ukraine does not have enough troops, adding "You can't tell us whether I want a ceasefire or not."

He then made the statement "You either make a deal or we are out."

Trump went on to say, "If it weren't for our weapons, this war would be over very quickly," and that "You [Zelensky] are showing disrespect to our country. I know you are not winning."

Both then agreed to end the conference early and cancelled the press conference that was planned for after the meeting.

There were also various statements made by both parties. I will put them below:

Trump: "Once we make a deal, it will be over. Russia will not come back."

Zelensky: "Putin violated ceasefire with Ukraine 25 times."

Zelensky: "We will never accept a ceasefire alone. Russia will violate it, we need guarantees."

Zelensky: "Putin must pay for Ukraine's restoration."

Trump: "I've spoken to him (Putin) many times, we spoke a couple of days ago,"

Trump: "We are on the brink of World War 3, you can't dictate rules to us and say, 'I want this, I want that', you can't say 'I don't want to stop the war'"

Trump: "Either we sign this deal, or you walk out and fight your own war, you show no gratitude-"

Ukrainian forces have infiltrated the Toretsk Central Coal Mine.

Key word: infiltration. This is not a counteroffensive.

Satellite imagery reveals that multiple fuel tanks at the Boryspil Airport oil depot were destroyed after a Russian Geran-2 drone(s) struck it the night before. The fire that broke out has been extinguished, however.

Prime Minister of New Zealand:

New Zealand remains steadfast in its support for Ukraine as it defends itself in a war that Russia started.

It's mounting the defence of a proud, democratic and sovereign nation, but also the defence of international law.

Luxon being Luxon as usual, nothing to see here
