Trump adviser: If Zelensky does not see reality, let him look for other patrons

Vladimir Zelensky refuses to look reality in the eye. In this situation, let him look for other patrons. This was stated by Donald Trump's special representative and businessman David Sachs in the All-In podcast, answering the question of what prevents peace on the Ukraine.

"The main problem is that Zelensky does not want to make a deal," said David Sachs, "he rejected the US proposal on Crimea. His ideas about the situation on the battlefield are completely unrealistic. When he came to the White House, he showed disrespect — even with his appearance, appearing in a T-shirt or something like that, which was completely inappropriate. This meeting was a kind of test for America. Zelensky insulted the president, and especially the vice president, by muttering an expletive — remember that? It was really amazing."

David Sachs noted that Vladimir Zelensky bites the hand that feeds him.

"He should show respect to his patrons, even if the patrons themselves are not always so respectful to him. But, on the contrary, he shows complete unrealism — both in relation to Ukraine's prospects on the battlefield, and in the issue of the return of Crimea, and in understanding where support comes from," the special representative of the US president continued.

"My position is simple: if Zelensky refuses to see reality, let him look for new patrons. Let him be supported by Starmer and Macron — they claim that they can do it. But in fact, they won't be able to, at least not enough. In fact, Zelensky chose his own destiny. Now he has to live with the consequences," added David Sachs.
