Zelenskyy left the White House in its procession shortly after the end of the meeting, and a joint press conference with Trump scheduled for Friday afternoon was canceled. The Associated Press and Reuters indicated that the agreement with the United States was not signed.
Here is a transcription of the meeting when she broke down.
Zelenskyy: Yes, yes, but after that, he broke the ceasefire. He killed our people and did not exchange prisoners. We signed the exchange of prisoners. But he didn’t do it. What kind of diplomacy, JD, do you ask me? What do you mean?
Vance: I’m talking about the kind of diplomacy that will end the destruction of your country.
Zelenskyy: Yes, but if …
Vance: Mr. President, Mr. President, with respect, I think it is disrespectful that you came to the oval office to try to plead this in front of the American media. Right now, you’re going around and forcing conscripts to front lines because you have labor problems. You should thank the president –
Zelenskyy: Have you ever been in Ukraine that you say what problems we have?
Vance: I actually looked at and saw the stories and I know what’s going on is that people bring you, bring them to you on a propaganda tour, Mr. President. Do you disagree that you have had problems with people in your soldiers? And do you think it’s respectful for –
Zelenskyy: I will answer you …
Vance: To come to the Oval Office of the United States of America and attack the administration which tries to prevent the destruction of your country.
Zelenskyy: Many questions, let’s have started from the start. First of all, during the war, everyone has problems, even you. But you have a beautiful ocean and do not feel now, but you will feel it in the future. May God bless you, you know. May God bless you and bless you.
Asset: You don’t know it. Do not tell ourselves what we are going to feel. We try to solve a problem. Do not tell ourselves what we are going to feel.

Zelenskyy: I’m not telling you …
Asset: Because you are unable to dictate this. You are unable to dictate what we are going to feel. We will feel very good. We will feel very good and very strong. You are not currently in very good position. You allowed yourself to be in a very bad position and it (vance) is right.
Zelenskyy: From the start of the war –
Asset: You are not in a good position. You don’t have the cards at the moment. With us, you start to have cards.
Zelenskyy: I don’t play cards.
Asset: Yeah, you play cards. You play with the lives of millions of people. You play with the Second World War. You play with the Second World War. And what you do is very disrespectful towards the country, this country, which supported you. Much more than many people have said they should have.
Vance: Did you say thank you once, this whole meeting?
Zelenskyy: Often. Even today.
Vance: No, in all this meeting.
Zelenskyy: Even today.
Vance: You went to Pennsylvania and campaigned for the opposition in October. Give a few words of appreciation to the United States of America and to the President who tries to save your country.
Zelenskyy: Please. You think that if you talk very hard about war –
Asset: He doesn’t speak loudly. He doesn’t speak loudly. Your country is in great difficulty.
Zelenskyy: Can I answer?
Asset: No, no. You have talked a lot. Your country is in great difficulty.
Zelenskyy: I know.
Asset: You don’t win. You don’t win this. You have a good chance of going out, ok? Because of us.
Zelenskyy: Mr. President. We stayed in our country, remaining strong. From the start of the war when he was alone. And we are grateful, I said thank you.
Asset: You were not alone. You were not alone. We have given you, through this stupid president, $ 350 billion. We have given you military equipment. And your men are courageous. But they had to use our soldiers. If you did not have our military equipment, if you did not have our military equipment, this war would have been completed in two weeks.
Zelenskyy: In three days, I heard him from Putin. In three days. It’s something –
Asset: Maybe less. It will again be a very difficult thing to do business like this.
Vance: Just say thank you.
Zelenskyy: I often said, thank you to the American people.
Vance: Accept that there are disagreements and will plead these disagreements rather than trying to fight in the American media when you are wrong. We know you are wrong.
Asset: Well, you see, I think it is good for the American people to see what is going on. I think it’s very important. This is why I continued to do so long. You must be grateful. You don’t have the cards. Your people die. You run low on the soldiers. You run low on the soldiers. It would be a fucking good thing … And then you tell us that I don’t want to stop. I don’t want to stop. I want to go. And I want that. Look, if you could get a cease-fire now, I tell you, you take it. The bullets therefore stop flying and your men stop being killed.
Zelenskyy: Of course, I want to stop war.
Asset: But you say you don’t want to stop. I want a ceasefire. Because you will get a ceasefire faster-
Zelenskyy: Ask our people a ceasefire, what they think.
Asset: It was not with me. He was a guy by the name of Biden who is not an intelligent person. Excuse me, it was with Obama, who gave you sheets and I gave you javelins.
Zelenskyy: Yes.
Asset: I gave you the javelins to eliminate all these tanks. Obama gave you sheets. In fact, the declaration is that Obama gave leaves and Trump gave javelots. You have to be more grateful because you let me tell yourself that you don’t have the cards. With us, you have the cards. But without us, you have no cards.
