Zelenskyy calls Russia’s claim of a strike on one of Putin’s residences a “complete fabrication,” a lie designed to sabotage diplomacy, justify more attacks on Kyiv, and excuse Moscow’s refusal to end the war. He warns the world must not stay silent as Russia tries to derail peace.

1. Zelensky has arrived 4 times in the US under Trump (an obvious mistake). He is met by now US official or red carpet. The sheer diplomatic minimum is the head of protocol of the State Department, but Trump just spits Zelensky in his face in diplomatic terms. /6

12. Each time Trump meets Zelensky, he calls Putin first for instructions & afterwards to report his results. That is how an Putin asset behaves.
13. Needless to say, the persistent liar Trump is not saying a true word about the Russia-Ukraine war. /7

Zelensky commented on the statement about an attack on Putin’s residence.
"Although Russians spread fakes to justify their strikes against Ukraine and further prolong this war, the world’s key intelligence services must possess the real information." Zelensky.

Ushakov says Putin warned Trump the attack will lead to a shift in Russia’s negotiation stance and won’t go unanswered. Trump allegedly added, “Thank God we didn’t give Zelensky Tomahawks,” and said the incident will affect U.S. policy toward Kyiv.

🇩🇪🇺🇦 Zelensky: Just spoke with Merz. First of all, we discussed the results of the meeting with Trump.
I informed about the main accents that were voiced and the key issues. We also discussed today's Russian fake, with which Moscow is trying to disrupt diplomacy and justify prolonging the war.
