Vice President JD Vance took an unusually aggressive role in a tense diplomatic exchange with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, signaling his intent to be a key enforcer in the Trump administration. The confrontation has drawn sharp criticism from Ukraine’s supporters while earning praise from some Republicans and Russian officials. Vance’s assertive stance suggests he is positioning himself as more than just a secondary figure in Trump’s presidency.

The fallout from the exchange could have significant implications for U.S. foreign policy and relations with its allies.
