Clown Zelensky Fires Ukraine's Diplomat to UK After Criticism
The U.S. and Western allies believe that Zelensky, who can’t keep his calm when criticized for being ungrateful, should oversee the use of some of the West’s most advanced weapons.
Vadim Pristayko, Kyiv’s ambassador to London, was shown the door on Friday after calling out President Volodymyr Zelensky after his boss responded sarcastically to criticism from the U.S. and UK that Ukraine could show more gratitude for the support its received during its war with Russia.
Zelensky, a former comedian best known for playing the piano with his penis, drew backlash from the U.S. after being told that Ukraine will not become a member of NATO while the conflict with Russia is raging.
Zelensky called the decision “absurd.”
That led to Jake Sullivan, President Joe Biden’s national security adviser, to tell reporters that Washington deserves a “degree of gratitude” for its support up until this point.
Ben Wallace, the minister of defense in the U.K., also said Britain is “not Amazon” when it comes to providing weapons and indicated that it might go over well in the future for Ukrainian leadership to show more gratitude.
Zelensky responded to their remarks by saying sarcastically, “We have always been grateful and always are grateful. I simply don’t know how else we should be grateful. We can wake up in the morning and thank the minister. Have him write to me how to be grateful, and I will be grateful.”
Pristayko said in an interview that he does not believe that this “sarcasm is healthy.”
