Trump is living in a Russian-made 'disinformation space,' says Ukraine's Zelenskyy
-
Summary
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy accused Donald Trump of living in a "Russian-made disinformation space" due to his administration's talks with Kremlin officials.
He urged Trump's team to be "more truthful" after Trump blamed Kyiv for the war and downplayed U.S. aid contributions.
Zelenskyy’s remarks came as U.S. envoy Keith Kellogg visited Kyiv amid shifting U.S. policy on Russia. Meanwhile, European leaders, feeling sidelined by U.S.-Russia talks, held emergency meetings.
Zelenskyy canceled a Saudi Arabia trip in protest.
-
Zelenskyy is completely right on here.
-
The republican traitor filth must be held to account.
-
Trump and Musk literally got regular phone mentoring on how to do what they're doing (shape and install an official Oligarchy). You don't need to create an information space when the participants are willingly taking direct lessons and coaching from Putin.
-
Russia got Ukraine's territories, USA wants to obtain something from Ukraine resources too to protect them.
UE should ask for something too from Ukraine to protect them from both USA and Russia.
Or at least pretend to do it so that the two bad guys think we're bad guys too. -
I don't get it. How will they sell to the people this total capitulation? I'm not American. As far as I'm informed people there don't like and don't trust Russia and Putin. Won't they see this deal and be like wtf?
-
America is living in a disinformation space. There is a reason Musk bought Twitter, and it's not because he thought he could make it better for users.

There are people here who will tell you that they would trust the Russian government more than their neighbor, if their neighbor ever suggested that industry should be regulated.
-
I stopped being nice to those neighbors. Feed your own cats. No I'm not turning the music down. Get fucked traitors.
-
Give them a few European nucleair warheads to use if they feel threatened enough. We went from helmets to F16s already.
Let's play fuck around and find out. -
They don’t have their own thoughts anymore; they love trump so much, they’re just going along with whatever he says and he says he likes Russia, so they’ve done a complete about-face on the subject.
-
It was never really about Russia or Putin, but the ideological divide between capitalism and socialism. And authoritarianism and democracy.
Now, we have an authoritarian president. And apparently a third of the country voted for that so. Yeah that's where Americans are at sadly.
-
He isn't, he is still polite to give Donnie a benefit of a doubt, like he is speaking like that because he's got malinformed. No, Trump uses his position to exchange Ukraine and the security of Europe for whatever he was promised or he himself promised beforehand for his success in pres campaign previosly, so he just closes his debts. Zelensky couldn't say that to Trump all other countries and his own nation are paper tokens he uses to play monopoly with his friends. Ukrainian defence depend too deeply on what Biden's given them before so as a diplomat he doesn't want to cross out the US even though he knows that with Trump they'd hardly get anything. And it's not about the US specifically, it's a standard that keeps every other donor comfortable to donate arms and money, setting the climate in which no random and immidiate decisions pass, unlike what Trump does.

The most telling statistic about Russia's trustworthiness is that every single independent country that shares a border with Russia on the West has mandatory military service and those in the same region without a shared border with Russia don't.
-
Yep and no one near him is going to correct him which is the perfect recipe for terrible atrocities and catastrophes
-
Trump is a russian marionette
-
Not just Russia's puppet. He'll let literally anyone stick their hand up his ass if they pay him.
-
Very handy that he has his own $Trump coin. Not a word of protest from conservatives.
-
Theres even people here on lemmy living in that space
-
I often wonder how it goes behind closed doors. Is Zelenskyy all polite or is he more like you're full of shit and you fucking know it?
