Zelenskyy: Putin is more irritating to White House than I am
President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelenskyy believes that Russian President Vladimir Putin is more irritating to the White House than he is.
The head of state said this during a conversation with journalists, Censor.NET reports citing Ukrinform.
When asked who causes more irritation in the United States - he or Putin, Zelenskyy answered: "I think Putin. Because I may say unpleasant things, but I tell the truth. And I say what I think. And he may sometimes say very nice things, but they are false. And I think that for intelligent people, it's those other people who are more worrying. Whatever the public rhetoric is, I think they're really disappointed - I don't know if that's the right word. But I think in general, the White House understands that Putin definitely doesn't want to end anything the way the White House wants it to end."
The President added that a partnership can be very uncomfortable, but it can still be a partnership.
"It seems to me that the issue with Putin is that if you think you are in a dialogue, you are really alone," Zelenskyy concluded.
