The President of the United States made a series of scathing statements directed at his Ukrainian counterpart. Andriy Sibiga responded to Vladimir Zelensky’s criticism with Donald Trump.
The Foreign Minister expressed support for the Ukrainian president. He said this on his own social media.
What did Sibiga say?
Andriy Sibiga answered Zelensky’s criticism from abroad.
President Volodymyr Zelensky leads our country in a time of war — a war for independence, freedom, and dignity. He has the support of the Ukrainian people, and it is the people who have the right to decide.
— said the minister.
He added that the statements by foreign leaders only confirm that the head of state is doing a good job. The foreign minister believes that Ukraine’s president deserves support.
It should be noted that in the evening 10 October, Donald Trump, after his agreement with Vladimir Putin on Russian diesel, made a number of odious statements. The American leader said that Ukraine needs to change its leadership.
Trump believes that the time has come to elect a new president. The American leader also added that there were no grounds for starting a war between Ukraine and Russia, and that it began because of “incompetence.”
As a reminder, the U.S. president has spoken about the need to hold elections after disputes with Ukrainian leadership not for the first time. In February 2025, Trump claimed that support for Volodymyr Zelensky had allegedly decreased to 4%.
