JUST IN: Zelensky just bluntly accused JD Vance of actively helping Russia by trying to kill US military aid, warning that cutting off Ukraine fundamentally weakens America. 🇺🇦🇺🇸🇷🇺⚔️

Volodymyr Zelenskyy has ignited a fresh political firestorm after directly accusing JD Vance of helping Russia by backing efforts to cut off U.S. military aid to Ukraine — a stunning escalation in the already tense relationship between Kyiv and Washington. 🇺🇦🇺🇸🇷🇺

During a sharply worded interview with Newsmax, Zelenskyy didn’t hold back. Responding to Vance’s recent comments praising the Trump administration’s decision to halt direct U.S. weapons transfers to Ukraine, the Ukrainian president delivered a blunt warning that stunned political observers across the globe.
“If JD Vance is proud that he’s not helping us, it means that he is helping Russians,” Zelenskyy said. “Russia is the enemy. They will always be enemies with the United States.” �

The explosive remarks came after Vance publicly declared that ending American military support for Ukraine was “one of the things I’m proudest” of during a recent Turning Point USA event. According to Vance, Europe should now carry the burden of funding Ukraine’s defense instead of relying on the United States. �

But Zelenskyy warned that abandoning Ukraine wouldn’t just weaken Kyiv — it would weaken America itself.
“Russia doesn’t respect weakness,” Zelenskyy said, cautioning that cutting aid only emboldens Moscow and threatens broader Western security. He insisted that Ukraine and the United States remain strategic partners whose alliance benefits both nations.
The dramatic clash adds even more tension to the growing divide inside American politics over the war in Ukraine. While some conservatives argue the U.S. should reduce involvement overseas, supporters of Ukraine fear that stepping back now could hand a massive geopolitical victory to Vladimir Putin.

Online reaction erupted almost instantly, with social media users fiercely debating whether Vance’s stance represents “America First” policy — or a dangerous opening for Russia. Critics blasted the comments as reckless, while supporters argued the U.S. has already spent too much on the conflict.
One thing is certain: Zelenskyy’s comments have transformed the debate from a policy disagreement into a direct accusation with global implications. And with the war still raging, the political battle over Ukraine inside the United States may be entering its most explosive phase yet.
