0:35Now PlayingPresident Volodymyr Zelenskiy hit back at Donald Trump’s misleading remarks about the Ukrainian leader’s approval rating and suggestions that Kyiv started the war, accusing the US president of living in a Russian “disinformation space.”
Tension escalated a day after senior officials from the US and Russia met for a first round of talks over the war in Ukraine, leaving Zelenskiy isolated and compounding fears that a deal to resolve the war will be reached without Kyiv’s involvement.
Trump followed up on Tuesday, telling reporters he would “probably” meet with Russian President Vladimir Putin before the end of the month. The president asserted that Zelenskiy’s public support was at 4% — a level belied by all available polling — and mentioned that wartime Ukraine hasn’t staged an election, a demand that’s been made by the Kremlin.
“We’ve seen this disinformation. We understand that it comes from Russia,” Zelenskiy told reporters in Kyiv on Wednesday, responding to Trump’s claims about his popularity. “We have proof that these numbers are being discussed between the US and Russia.”
