At an important meeting in Washington, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy and his diplomatic partners succeeded in restoring relations with U.S. President Donald Trump. This was reported by Zamin.uz.
This event caused Russian President Vladimir Putin to face an unexpected and complicated situation, according to The Telegraph. The publication emphasized that Zelenskiy made a wise and clear decision in his choice of attire this time.
At the previous meeting held in the Oval Office in February, his clothing was negatively evaluated by Americans. However, this time he maintained his serious and responsible image.
In April, he participated in a proper and orderly appearance similar to the black jacket worn at Pope Francis's funeral. According to The Telegraph, Trump was pleased with Zelenskiy's action.
Last time, in response to a sharp question from a journalist, the president responded politely and sarcastically: "You are still in that suit," he said. "I have changed, but you have not," he added.
This joke was understood by everyone. Zelenskiy and European diplomats acted based on a clear strategy during the meeting.
They showed respect and sincerity to Trump, trying to gain an advantage to influence opponents. Additionally, Zelenskiy made a special impact by handing a letter from his wife to the First Lady.
This gesture referred to Melania Trump's letter to Putin calling for the protection of children. When the Ukrainian president handed the letter to Trump, he said, "This is not for you, but for your wife."
The publication considers this tactic and staging to be ideal. It created an opportunity to use U.S. support for personal purposes.
Psychologically, this move was aimed at turning Trump towards Zelenskiy and Europe. Although the results of the meeting were not entirely perfect, compared to the summit in Alaska, the European alliance achieved significant strategic gains.
Unlike previous accusations from Trump, Zelenskiy ensured that the U.S. president showed genuine interest in peace and security issues. One of the most important achievements was that Trump refused to exclude the deployment of American troops to Ukraine.
He said: "They are Europe’s first line of defense because they need to be there, but we will also help them. We will participate."
Furthermore, Trump announced that preparations for a meeting between Zelenskiy and Putin have begun.
This is another diplomatic victory for Ukraine and its allies. The meeting signifies Putin’s recognition of Zelenskiy as a legitimate and effective head of state, which is clearly unwelcome to the Russian leadership.
According to The Telegraph, the event that took place on Monday is regarded as an important and peaceful diplomatic success for Ukraine. The publication writes, "Putin may have been under pressure for the first time in recent weeks.
If he responds to threats to his power by disrupting negotiations, he will appear as the guilty party. This could strengthen U.S. measures aimed at ending the war."
