really interesting.

it’s almost to the point of scolding——

former u.s. president and republican presidential candidate trump said he would not meet with ukrainian president zelensky.

the reason is that zelensky’s previous words and deeds not only offended trump, but also almost the entire republican party.

however, on september 27, local time, zelensky still met trump at trump tower in manhattan!

trump (1st from right) meets zelensky (2nd from left) at trump tower

putin (left) met with scholz (upper right) and macron (lower right) at a long table that year

it can be seen from the scenes at the scene that although it is not like putin's reception of german chancellor scholz and french president macron at a long table, at least trump does not want to get close to zelensky. even if it's not a long table, at least in the photos posted, the two of them seem to be thousands of miles apart!

uncle hai’s previous articles"why did trump and his son fall out with zelensky?" 》, it has been mentioned that zelensky threw out the so-called "victory plan" before leaving, claiming to share it with biden, harris, and trump, which had caused trump's displeasure. as soon as he landed in the united states, they went to biden’s birthplace, and all the american accompanying people were democrats. this caused great displeasure to trump and even the entire republican party!

judging from the meeting between trump and zelensky, trump somewhat hates zelensky, and this fundamental has not changed. but when two people meet, even if they are cold to cold, they still have to see each other. this is undoubtedly a case of everyone getting what he needs.

as far as trump is concerned, he certainly understands that this is a critical moment in the us election. zelensky landed in the united states, met with president biden, and met with harris. so, as harris's opponent, trump must also consider whether he can grab more votes from his competitors to win the final victory.

if zelensky is not seen simply out of personal "righteous indignation", will the gains outweigh the losses?

when meeting, you must shake hands first, and the etiquette cannot be less

as for zelensky, he has to answer to the country. now that i have met biden and harris, if i had not met trump, some people in ukraine, including the verkhovna rada (parliament), would also ask -

are you really sure that ukraine's resistance to russia's "invasion" will gain unanimous support from the us political circles?

many people worry that if trump wins the election, ukraine will be forced to do things it is unwilling to do, such as making substantial concessions to russia or even actively harming its sovereignty.

as long as zelensky sees trump, a public opinion atmosphere will be formed in ukraine, that is -

both parties in the us election actually attach great importance to zelensky, which means they also attach great importance to ukraine's resistance to russia.

here, it must be said that after zelensky’s theoretical term expired, ukraine did not hold a presidential election. for this reason, russian president vladimir putin has long declared that zelensky is now an illegitimate president.

of course, by going to the united nations general assembly for a meeting this time, zelensky has proven to a large extent to the world that he is the legitimate president of ukraine and the internationally recognized president of ukraine.

if the president of the united states, as well as the democratic and republican presidential candidates all meet with him, zelensky will be able to promote his legitimacy in the country!

meet and greet. in fact, trump and zelensky still dislike each other.

let’s see how the two talk about it after they meet!

trump said to the reporters present without any explanation:

"we have a very good relationship, and as you know, i have a very good relationship with president putin. i think if i win, we will quickly solve the russian-ukrainian conflict..."

in front of zelensky, he said that he had a good relationship with putin. so, what should zelensky do?

zelensky had no choice but to interject:

"i wish our relationship was better!"

however, trump is a bit daddy at this time. he lectured zelensky:

"we have a very good relationship, and as you know, i have a very good relationship with president putin, and i think if i win, we will solve this (war) problem very quickly..."

uncle hai’s personal feelings:

the leader of the entire meeting between trump and zelensky was undoubtedly trump!

after zelensky landed in the united states, his first stop was the artillery shell factory in scranton, pennsylvania.

for example, the two were interviewed by fox news instead of cnn. the reason is of course that trump believes that what fox reports is "real news" while what some other american media reports is "fake news."

zelensky had no choice but to accommodate.

trump talked to the camera, for example, if he were in the position of president, it would be impossible for the russia-ukraine conflict to break out;

of course, during the interview, zelensky’s trip to biden’s birthplace, the artillery shell factory in scranton, pennsylvania, will inevitably be discussed. this, of course, made trump very dissatisfied. trump emphasized that once elected, he would soon end the war.

did zelensky think of such an embarrassing and frustrating situation before he left?

who is trump?

is it true that hatred must be repaid?

zelensky should understand.

besides, trump tower is not the white house.

in other words, when trump has not yet won the election and may not be able to return to the white house, zelensky bites the bullet and reluctantly meets with him, which is more illustrative.

where the russia-ukraine conflict will go depends on changes in the u.s. political situation.

suppose, and i’m just talking about hypotheticals here, that trump returns to the white house, what will happen to zelensky’s wealth and life? this, perhaps in zelensky’s mind today, is more important than the country of ukraine!

otherwise, it is difficult to imagine why he would still want to meet with trump despite being almost humble.

this year, we can see that the battle between the donkey and the elephant is about who will win.

but we may not necessarily see who will win in the russia-ukraine conflict.

however, i still hope that the war will end soon and less lives will be lost.

from this perspective, it may not be too bad that zelensky meets more politicians in the united states...
