Trump Plays Nice With Zelenskyy After Turning On Him Earlier In Week

Huff Post  

LOADING ERROR LOADING On Wednesday, Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump accused Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy of saying “nasty” things about him and criticized him for not reaching a deal with Russia’s Vladimir Putin to end the invasion of Zelenskyy’s country. But Friday, both men were, if not all smiles, at least only somewhat visibly awkward as they tried to paper over a central difference in their stances: Trump has declined to say which side he favors in Russia’s war on Ukraine, and Zelenskyy has insisted on a “just” end to the war that would preserve his country’s pre-conflict boundaries. “It’s something we have to have a quick discussion about because the president of Ukraine is in our country and he’s making little nasty aspersions toward your favorite president, me,” Trump said at a campaign appearance in North Carolina, referring to Zelenskyy’s description of Trump running mate JD Vance’s position as “too radical” in an interview with The New Yorker. “Four hundred people have saved millions of Ukrainians.” Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy and U.S. Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump meet in New York City on Friday.
