Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk expressed support for Ukraine following President Volodymyr Zelenskyy's dispute with U.S. President Donald Trump and Vice President J.D. Vance in the Oval Office.

Tusk shared his message on the social media platform X.

“Dear Volodymyr Zelenskyy, dear Ukrainian friends, you are not alone,” the Polish Prime Minister assured.

After a clash between Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy and U.S. President Donald Trump in the Oval Office, French President Emmanuel Macron stated that Russia is the aggressor and Ukrainians are the victims of aggression.

"I think we were all right to help Ukraine and to sanction Russia three years ago and to continue to do so. And when I say we, I mean the United States of America, the Europeans, the Canadians, the Japanese and many others," he told reporters in Portugal. "We must thank all those who helped and we must respect those who have been fighting since the beginning because they are fighting for their dignity, their independence, for their children and for the security of Europe," Emmanuel Macron continued. "These are simple things but they are good to remember in these moments."

Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez shared a message on X expressing Spain's support for Ukraine.

“Ukraine, Spain stands with you,” he wrote.

U.S. Senator Adam Schiff of California weighed in on the situation in Washington, stating:

“A hero and a coward are meeting in the Oval Office today. And when the meeting is over, the hero will return home to Ukraine,” he wrote.

Johann Wadephul, Deputy Leader of Germany’s CDU party, expressed his shock at the incident, saying: "The scenes from the White House are shocking. How can you stab the president of an invaded country in the back like that? Free Europe will not betray Ukraine."

This provocation in the Oval Office went too far. The EU must have an answer. Stop „a“ kissing Trump and do the right thing.

As a Brit, I truly hope Keir makes a pro Ukraine statement too.
