Senator Lindsey Graham suggested Zelensky should resign, adding that Friday's altercation had imperilled future US military support for Kyiv, but another Republican senator accused Trump of "embracing Putin".

Zelensky was asked to leave the White House without signing a deal with the US that would have jointly developed Ukraine's valuable minerals.

On Saturday, Zelensky enjoyed a much warmer reception from UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer in Downing Street, a day ahead of a meeting with King Charles.
