In a bizarre turn of events, White House press staffers have reportedly been given the lunch originally prepared for Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky after he was abruptly removed from the Oval Office.
According to Fox News, Zelensky was “begging to stay” after his meeting with President Trump was cut short. Instead of continuing discussions, the Ukrainian leader found himself escorted out, leaving his planned meal untouched.
“The lunch that they were supposed to have is sitting right outside the hallway, and the press staffers are going to be eating that lunch,” Fox News reported.
The unexpected dismissal follows growing tensions between Trump and Zelensky, with the U.S. president reportedly pressuring Ukraine to sign over mineral rights to the United States as part of ongoing negotiations.
