US Vice President JD Vance criticised Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy’s remarks about President Donald Trump, stating that Ukraine “wouldn’t exist without the generosity” of Washington.
"President Zelenskyy, his country wouldn’t exist without the generosity of the United States of America. So (he should) say thank you,” Vance remarked in a Thursday interview at the Conservative Political Action Conference, a key Republican Party event in Washington, DC.
Vance further commented: “All of us know the president would tell you that badmouthing him in public is not the way to get President Trump to change his mind. So, I think Zelenskyy needs to have some better consultants."
He urged Zelenskyy to call Trump or one of the nation’s diplomats in case of a disagreement.
“Don't go on a media tour around Europe badmouthing the president,” he added, describing it as insulting to Trump as well as “insulting to me, it's insulting to the American people.”
Zelenskyy and Trump exchanged criticisms this week over a meeting between US and Russian officials in Saudi Arabia to discuss matters such as ending the war in Ukraine, sparking concerns in Kyiv and among European leaders about being left out of the talks.
Trump labelled Zelenskyy a “dictator,” implying that Ukraine had initiated the Russia-Ukraine war in February 2022, while Zelenskyy countered that Trump exists in a “space of disinformation.”
During his visit to Saudi Arabia on Tuesday, Zelenskyy travelled to the Turkish capital, Ankara, to meet President Recep Tayyip Erdogan, stressing that any discussions on concluding the war in Ukraine must include Ukraine.
Throughout his presidency, Trump has been known for personalising relationships with other nations, frequently expressing favour for some heads of state while disliking others.
