Has Zelensky won Trump's trust?

Loading player...
It remains one of the defining meetings of President Trump's second term - that now infamous Oval Office exchange - when President Trump and his Vice President JD Vance met Ukraine's Volodymyr Zelensky in February 2025. They clashed over the Ukraine conflict with President Trump accusing President Zelensky of 'gambling with World War Three.' The pair met today and President Zelensky said it was a 'good' meeting.

Also in the programme: Dozens are still unaccounted for after a powerful earthquake hits Japan. Firefighters are working around the clock to contain wildfires in France; and is clicking your fingers in cricket cheating? A video goes viral.
