Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy is one of the most respected world leaders. However, his recent meeting with United States President Donald Trump showed that Zelenskyy may not be as revered as his followers think.
During a heated battle with Trump, Zelenskyy criticized Vice President JD Vance for not visiting Ukraine and claiming he had no idea what was happening, prompting the 47th President to step into the conversation.
The President told Zelenskyy he was being very disrespectful to him and the country, referencing a possible World War III if the Ukrainian President didn’t tone it down. But now it seems Zelenskyy may have more world leaders in his back pocket.

Following the heated verbal exchange between Donald Trump and Volodymyr Zelenskyy, the latter sent supportive messages to other countries’ leaders, and some interesting and note-worthy notes were returned.
World leaders such as Maia Sandu of Maldova, Pedro Sanchez of Spain, and even Donald Tusk of Poland have all praised the President of Ukraine, which has some people calling Zelenskyy’s move shady.

While there has been no report of further action being planned by the United States, things are still tense, and Trump has claimed that Zelenskyy will be welcomed back into the White House when he is “ready for peace.”
