Summary
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy hit back at Donald Trump’s accusation that Ukraine started its war with Russia, saying that Trump is trapped in a “disinformation bubble” and adding that his country was not for sale.
He rejected Trump’s claim that Kyiv could have avoided the war and defended U.S. aid.
Referring to U.S. support—$67 billion in weapons and $31.5 billion in budgetary aid—Zelenskyy dismissed demands for $500 billion in minerals as “not a serious conversation.”
Moscow welcomed Trump’s remarks, further fueling concerns about his foreign policy approach.
Saying Trump is trapped in the disinformation bubble is like saying a bee got trapped in the hive.
Trump is the queen bee, but Putin is the beekeeper.
This bee is trapped in different hive, trying to figure out their production secrets.
I believe most people who voted for Trump were in a Russian disinformation bubble.
Never forget these maga heads with t-shirts that said: i’d rather be russian than a democrat. They don’t give a shit, they want their team to win. It’s a sport to them. If you have to inject 15 year olds with testosterone maybe win a college football game, hell yeah, better than losing
“I don’t like Trump’s flirting with Putin," said 49-year-old Fedir Logvynenko. “I don’t quite understand whether it’s from great intelligence or from complete incompetence.”
Hate to break it to you, but it’s pretty obviously the latter.
Is that translated? Or, rather, does Fedir speak English?
I got a funny feeling that the translators in global media sound a hell of a lot more competent than Trump. And there’s a hell of a lot gained in translation.
He didn’t get trapped or tricked. He knows what he is doing, he is a traitor that is caving to blackmail.
It is treason. Nobody’s making him do it, he’s doing what he wants to do.
Is he vulnerable to any possible blackmail at this point? I think it’s safe to assume he is just really fond of Putin and his ruling style.
I mean It kinda depends on what Putin has on him. If it’s a tape of him molesting Ivanka or Tiffany, or even one of his sons, he’d probably want to keep that hidden forever, even after he attains dictator for life status.
It’s probably one of the few things that could actually take him down.
He didn’t getter trapped or tricked. He knows what he is doing
It seems you’re dispelling some notion … 🤔 What does Secretary Rubio think about it?
Hey, he’s also trapped in American disinformation and misinformation bubbles too. Also, he’s extremely stupid so he’ll never realize he’s wrong and too narcissistic to ever admit he’s wrong, so we’re all screwed.
A more plausible alternative interpretation is that Trump is a source of the disinformation bubble and not its victim.
That’s a weird way to pronounce foreign agent.
Another one of trumps great business deals - failed.
imo, i feel it is intentional and made to be as neutral as possible so the man baby won’t have more reasons to give a fit.
i wish europe can set their defenses up from this experience.
Always has been
Shit I coulda told ya that, man.
He’s not in a bubble, he is the bubble
He’s trapped in a ‘fat dumb piece of old shit criminal’ bubble also.
Russian disinformation bubble
Like lemmy.ml?
More like the GOP and most major US news outlets at this point
it’s not for sale except for all the public industry he sold for cheap
Are you talking about Yeltsin?
talking about zelenskyy https://www.kyivpost.com/post/16327
It’s not really fair to criticize privatization of state assets when the country is under attack and running on fumes. It’s unfortunately a necessity to keep going. I seriously doubt it would’ve happened in peace time.
agree but it just makes the whole not for sale thing fall a little flat
though this current deal from Trump is complete dogshit of course
You know who else did that? Nations at threat from Nazi invasion in WWII. Do you need to have the why explained to you?
