Congressional Republicans supported President Donald Trump and Vice President JD Vance's efforts to promote peace in Ukraine and Russia despite Ukrainian leader Voldymi Zelensky's “disrespectful” attitude in the White House.
The oval office meeting with Zelensky soon collapsed, and Zelensky's militant Zelensky questioned the usefulness of American diplomacy.

The rhetorical “What diplomacy, JD, are you talking? What does it mean?” Vice President Vance led him to the retort with a clear disgust: “I am talking about diplomacy that will end the destruction of your country.”
