Zelensky invades Trump’s ‘disinformation space’
CNNCNN — A version of this story appeared in CNN’s What Matters newsletter. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky exploded inside what he’s called the “disinformation space” Russia has created around US President Donald Trump, but he may have jeopardized further American support for his country. Trump, meanwhile, accused Zelensky of “gambling with World War III.” The resulting Oval Office shouting match, conducted in front of reporters, was a spectacle without precedent in front of TV cameras at the White House. While Zelensky did try to interject with more thanks during the Oval Office appearance, Trump berated him, saying the war would have been over in “two weeks” without American military aid. “The insolent pig finally got a proper slap down in the Oval Office and @realDonaldTrump is right: The Kiev regime is ‘gambling with World War III,’” said Dmitry Medvedev, a top official in Putin’s government, in a post on X. Zelensky, on the other hand, took to X to again thank the US and Trump for their support, as if the blowup had never occurred.
