The tension in the talks of Presidents D. Trump and W. Zelenski in the White home sparked a number of sharp emotions and comments. But at the same time, it requires greater caution with respect to building complex scenarios for further developments.

The US will, of course, look closely and check whether their diagnosis of Ukraine and European partners, expressed in Trump and Vance's words in an interview with Zelenski, was correct.
