7:49Now PlayingMatt Frei returns from Washington to deliver unrivalled political analysis of Donald Trump's bust up with President Zelenskyy.
Was the meeting a trap set up by the US President and Vice-President Vance? What cards have Ukraine got left to play?
At a pivotal moment in history, Volodymyr Zelenskyy has said that "Ukraine should be heard and not forgotten".
The Ukrainian president said:"People in Ukraine need to know that they are not alone, that their interests are represented in every country, in every corner of the world."
The statement on social media came after Trump accused him of gambling with World War Three in a meeting that descended into chaos.
Mr Zelenskyy said earlier that he wanted his US counterpart "to be more on our side" in an interview after the meeting.
Plans for the two countries to sign a minerals agreement, which would see continued US military support in exchange for developing Ukraine's natural resources, were also put on hold when Zelenskyy left the White House early after the astonishing scene.
Zelenskyy said afterwards: "I'm not sure we did anything bad", when asked if he would like to make an apology.
He added: "We're thankful to Americans for all your support, you did a lot, I'm thankful to President Trump and Congress' bipartisan support," Zelensky said.
"You helped us a lot from the very beginning, you helped us to survive," he said in the Fox interview. "We are strategic partners."
