Russia has condemned Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky’s visit to Washington, calling it a “complete failure.” Russian foreign ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova accused him of being “obsessed with continuing the war.” The visit saw an unprecedented public clash between Zelensky and US President Donald Trump, who told him, “You either make a deal or we are out.” Trump later accused Zelensky of “disrespecting” the US. The confrontation cast doubt on future US-Ukraine relations. Despite tensions, Zelensky told Fox News that ties could be repaired but refused to apologize. Russia reaffirmed its goals of “demilitarisation and denazification” of Ukraine.
