Tense meeting with Trump in the Oval Office, Zelensky: Russians had a hand, they

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has spoken once again about the incident that occurred between him and US President Donald Trump in the Oval Office.

Zelensky has blamed the Russians, saying they have managed to influence high-level officials in the White House.

In an interview with Time magazine, the Ukrainian president said that the Kremlin has successfully managed to convince members of the Trump administration to believe false narratives about the war.

"I believe that Russia managed to influence some people in the White House team through information. Their signal to the Americans was that the Ukrainians do not want to end the war and something must be done to force them," the Ukrainian president said.

Zelensky also referred to his Oval Office clash with Trump and JD Vance last month, saying he "preserved Ukraine's dignity" during the verbal debate.
