U.S. President Donald Trump referred to Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy as a “dictator” in comments about the ongoing war between Ukraine and Russia.

Trump’s remarks, made on his Truth Social platform, questioned the democratic nature of Zelenskyy’s leadership, suggesting that he rules without elections.

Trump also urged Zelenskyy to act quickly for the future of Ukraine.

Zelenskyy, who was elected in 2019 with a decisive victory, has faced significant challenges due to Russia’s invasion of Ukraine in early 2022.

Zelenskyy’s leadership has focused on combating corruption and navigating Ukraine through the war, but his administration has been under increased scrutiny due to the ongoing conflict.

The United States has been a major supporter of Ukraine, providing military aid and resources.

Zelenskyy’s government continues to balance national security with democratic governance amid the war.
