‘Why should I be afraid of Trump?’ asks Zelensky
The Ukrainian said he respects Trump, who was elected by American citizens. He also stated that the two countries have been strategic partners for decades. Trump has assumed a role as a mediator between Russia and Ukraine to reach an agreement that leads to an end to the war.
King Charles urged Trump to support Ukraine more. Despite claiming that the two countries have a good relationship, Zelensky stated in the interview that King Charles III, of the United Kingdom, acted to bring the USA closer to Ukraine.
“I don’t know all the details, but I understand that His Majesty has sent some important signals to President Trump,” Zelensky said.. Donald Trump visited the United Kingdom in September and met individually with the monarch.
Trump respects Charles. The Ukrainian also said that Trump respects the king and considers him “very important”, something that does not apply to many people.
History of Trump and Zelensky’s relationship
In February this year, Zelensky and Trump had a disagreement during the Ukrainian’s visit to the White House. In front of the cameras, Trump adopted a combative stance, made comments about Zelensky’s clothes, interrupted him and raised his voice. His attitude and that of his deputy, JD Vance, who also participated in the meeting, were considered “bully”.
