Zelensky 'maybe not such a big humanitarian as Putin,' he quips as Ukraine's relations with Trump unravel

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky expressed frustration over the U.S. administration's recent actions, which he deemed unsupportive. In an interview, he humorously compared himself to Putin, acknowledging the humanitarian praise directed at the Russian leader by U.S. Special Envoy Steve Witkoff. Despite the ongoing conflict, Zelensky emphasized Ukraine's urgent military needs, particularly regarding Starlink service and air defense missiles. He noted that Ukraine has received minimal military support recently and criticized the lack of explanations from the U.S. regarding delays. Zelensky also mentioned upcoming trilateral peace talks set for November, indicating Ukraine's willingness to negotiate an end to the war.
