Russia pleased with confrontation between Trump and Zelenskiy
Russia expressed satisfaction following a heated confrontation between Donald Trump and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy in the White House. Russian officials criticized Zelenskiy, calling for an end to military aid to Ukraine and portraying him as a U.S. puppet. Former Russian President Dmitry Medvedev claimed Zelenskiy received a deserved reprimand during the argument. Russian media highlighted the incident as a setback for Zelenskiy, with some suggesting it could harm his political future amid ongoing tensions. The clash has raised concerns in Ukraine and Europe about potential shifts in U.S.-Russia relations. Zelenskiy has faced criticism from Russian leaders, who question his legitimacy as Ukraine remains under martial law and unable to hold elections.
