‘Have You Said Thank You Once?’: Trump’s ‘Ungrateful’ Dig at Zelenskyy
What was meant to be a diplomatic chat towards restoring peace in Russia and Ukraine, and ending the war that has been going on for over three years, turned into a meltdown between the world leaders. Trump criticized Zelenskyy for his lack of commitment to the ceasefire, stating that the Ukrainian President finds himself in a difficult situation and has put himself in a precarious position. He also claimed that Zelenskyy is risking the lives of millions and playing with the possibility of igniting World War 3.
Trump also schooled him for being ungrateful to all those who have been trying to help him, especially the United States. He said, “You’re gambling with World War 3. And what you’re doing is very disrespectful to the country, this country, that has backed you far more than a lot of people said they should have. Have you said thank you once? In the entire meeting. No.”
