economictimes.indiatimes.com —

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy responded with a smile and silence when asked if Donald Trump was scapegoating him to deflect from US political troubles ahead of midterm elections. Zelenskyy's non-verbal reply came during a Brussels press conference after meeting EU leaders, following Trump's claim that dealing with Vladimir Putin is easier than with him. Zelenskyy noted the US said it's difficult to speak with him despite a thousand drones striking Ukraine. The question referenced Trump's challenges with Iran and soaring diesel prices, suggesting he may be using Ukraine as a distraction. Zelenskyy's knowing smile and laughter from journalists highlighted the strained US-Ukraine relations.
