Zelenskyy criticizes Trump for blaming Ukraine in Russian invasion comments
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy responded to U.S. President Donald Trump's recent comments blaming Ukraine for the Russian invasion. Zelenskyy accused Trump of living in a "disinformation space" and noted that a recent poll shows 58% of Ukrainians trust him. Zelenskyy expressed concern over misinformation, particularly from Russia, and mentioned that he would seek more data on global leaders' trust levels. He criticized Trump's remarks, which labeled him as incompetent, following U.S.-Russia talks aimed at resolving the conflict. Zelenskyy emphasized the need for solid security guarantees from Western partners to help end the war with Russia in 2025. He stated that U.S. actions have inadvertently helped Putin escape isolation, which he believes negatively impacts Ukraine.
