Eklat in the White House: Trump's poison for Selenskyj - a meeting ends in a fight!
In the run-up to the Ukraine summit in London, which will take place on Sunday, the Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau announced his participation. As Oe24 , Trudeau meets the German Federal Chancellor Olaf Scholz and the British Prime Minister KEIR. The summit gained explosive through the recent scandal between US President Donald Trump and the Ukrainian President Wolodymyr Selenskyj on Friday, where there was a violent exchange of blows.
Trump and Selenskyj came into a difficult argument in the White House, which finally led to the interruption of their meeting. Trump pushed Selenskyj to go into “compromises” with Russian President Vladimir Putin, which vehemently rejected and pointed out that one could not negotiate with a “murderer”, like ZDF reported. The argument worldwide encountered outrage and led to Scholz and other European politicians strongly indicate solidarity with Ukraine. Scholz emphasized that "nobody wants peace more than the people in Ukraine" and called for quick political measures to support.
international reactions and effects
The reactions are internationally numerous and diverse. NATO also sees the need for a stable relationship between Ukraine and the USA and asks Selenskyj to restore it. NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte noted that a strong joint approach was important to ensure permanent peace in the region. In Germany, Foreign Minister Annalena Baerbock announced that rapid decisions are necessary for more security in Europe and criticized the current situation.
Selenskyj himself ranks a positive representation, but also expressed his gratitude to the USA. Despite the scandal, he said: "Thank you America, thanks for the support", which shows that he appreciates the important US help, even if the diplomatic relationships are burdened. The incident has strongly influenced Ukraine, but also the entire geopolitical landscape and will play an important role in the upcoming summit.
