Zelenskyy Watches as Trump Faces the Choice: Stand Up to Putin or Give Away Ukraine - Adam Kinzinger



After Donald Trump and Vice President JD Vance are conducting a virtual meeting with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy and European allies, Donald Trump is set to meet Vladimir Putin on Friday in Alaska but Ukraine, the nation fighting for its survival against Russia’s invasion, isn’t even invited.

Adam Kinzinger breaks down why this meeting could be a disaster for U.S. credibility, a gift to the Kremlin, and a betrayal of our allies. From Trump’s history of going soft on Putin to the high stakes for global security, this is a moment the world can’t ignore.

Watch to learn why the outcome of this meeting could shape the future of the war in Ukraine and America’s role on the world stage. - 08/13/2025.
