President Trump asked Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky to leave the White House shortly after their shocking public blowup today, Axios' Barak Ravid reports.

• They did not sign an agreement on access to Ukrainian minerals — the ostensible purpose of the meeting.
• Zelensky definitely didn't make any progress in his effort to secure a peace deal that doesn't lean too heavily in Russia's favor.

💥 "You're gambling with the lives of millions of people. You're gambling with World War III," Trump said to Zelensky as their meeting went off the rails with cameras rolling.

• "Have you said 'thank you' once, in this entire meeting?" Vice President Vance asked. "You went to Pennsylvania and campaigned for the opposition in October. Offer some words of appreciation for the United States of America and the president who's trying to save your country."
• Zelensky "can come back when he is ready for peace," Trump said on Truth Social after the meeting.

"Our plan was to sign the minerals deal and get into this economic partnership and move towards peace" — not to have a public shouting match, a White House official told Axios' Barak Ravid.

• The meeting took a turn after Vance, while answering a question from a reporter, said the way to end the war is through diplomacy with Russia.
• An exasperated Zelensky pushed back, detailing Putin's history of violating previous agreements. "What diplomacy are you talking about, JD?" he asked.

After that, President Trump and Vance tore into the Ukrainian leader.

⏱️ "The blank check era for Zelensky in Washington is over and he didn't realize that," the White House official said.

• Trump and his team stayed in the Oval Office while Zelensky and his team moved to another room.

The Ukrainians tried to get the meeting to resume. But Trump decided he'd had enough. National security adviser Mike Waltz and Secretary of State Marco Rubio asked Zelensky to leave before the scheduled lunch — kicked out.

👔 The intrigue: Another small but not insignificant factor that irritated Trump — Zelensky didn't wear a suit.

• Trump's advisers had told Zelensky's team several times that he should wear a suit to the White House, not the military-style clothes he has been wearing since the Russian invasion, two sources told Axios.
• "He is all dressed up today," Trump said when Zelensky arrived in a more formal black outfit.
