Pro-Ukraine protests across US after Trump-Zelensky debate
Pro-Ukraine protesters gathered in Boston, Massachusetts, on Saturday-BBC

Pro-Ukraine protests have taken place across the US after president Donald Trump and vice president JD Vance's angry exchange with Volodymr Zelensky at the White House.

Hundreds of people gathered in New York, Los Angeles and Boston to express their support for Ukraine after the furious row in the Oval Office, BBC reported.

Protesters holding pro-Ukraine signs also lined a road in Waitsfield, Vermont, where Vice-President Vance and his family were visiting for a ski holiday.

US media reported the family moved to an undisclosed location from their planned ski resort because of the demonstrations.

A protest in Waitsfield against the Trump-Vance administration had been organised earlier in the week-before the US president and vice-president's clash with Zelensky - but many signs referenced the row and Russia's war with Ukraine.

Ahead of the Vance family's trip, Vermont's governor Phil Scott had urged people to "be respectful" to them.
