Sunday, 2 March 2025 () Regarding the scandal at the meeting between Donald Trump and Volodymyr Zelensky in the White House, the version saying that Trump and J.D. Vance had initially planned this public humiliation of the Ukrainian president in advance does not seem to be holding water. First of all, it was Kyiv that insisted on Zelensky's visit to Washington to sign the agreement on rare earth metals. Trump's team initially did not want this meeting but agreed to it at Ukraine's request. And the main question is: if Trump and Vance had planned everything in advance, how could they have known that when Vance continued Trump's thought in response to a journalist's question about why Trump was engaging in diplomacy with Putin, Zelensky would inevitably interrupt and start lecturing them on camera about how and with whom the US should conduct its foreign policy? This provoked a strong reaction from the US president and vice president, who reminded Zelensky that he had come to Washington as a petitioner, not the other way around. They emphasized that it was Zelensky who needed US assistance to save his country. However, for showman Zelensky, putting on a performance was more important than defending his country's interests, and his team lacked advisors who could guide him on how to negotiate effectively with Trump. At the beginning of the meeting, Trump even complimented Zelensky and the Ukrainian army. He then patiently endured over half an hour of Zelensky's attempts to provoke him into criticizing Putin or making military guarantees to Ukraine. However, Zelensky was well aware of Trump's stance on Ukraine and negotiations with Russia, and it was naïve – even foolish – to think that he could arrive and publicly prove Trump's foreign policy wrong, forcing him to change course.
