I'll bite.
True. For several reasons.
That is a VERY common political method. "Stupid" suggestions that will never get accepted comes up every day for various reasons.
What was he supposed to do? Just accept it? If he does fight the lies, more people will think that Trump is right.
Now people saw that Trump had nothing to back up his claim.
And how is that a mistake?
Sounds interesting, I'd like to see that part. Can you provide a link with a timestamp? I tried finding it myself but found nothing.
It is very common to re-enact when the cameras are on. This was Trumps chance to show compassion.
I just rewatched that bit trying to see it from your angle, and I don't see it at. He spelled out some stuff that any world leader shouldn't need to be told, I assume that was for the cameras.
Although you could be right, that Zelensky is approaching Trumps childish language. But even if that is true, how is this something that would upset Trump? Most people appreciate when you use their own way of communication, except when their way is some variation of bullying.
Haven't got much time but will say this:
"That is a VERY common political method. “Stupid” suggestions that will never get accepted comes up every day for various reasons"
That could be a possibility, especially since the magic minerals have been promised to the UK in their 100 year deal.
Then it would be a very elaborate and convoluted way to get out of ukraine without looking (more) like losers.
The rest of your points show you think the same as Zelenski.
It's politics, you keep that indoors and this event is for the media.
You play the part and certainly don't lose your cool or try to make a point.
Like you and me, he is not a politician and can't control himself.
He has been described by his own entourage last year as completely unreasonable.
This thing was a deal where he need to compromise yet he goes back into his fanatic stance.
Facts call for compromise and acceptance, not his utopic unrealistic total victory.
All this was a sad spectacle.
Either way, it will not be the US or Ukraine who decide.
Mineral deal or not.
The Russians will have the final say.
The European vasals 2 cents wanting to give safety guarantees is even more of a farce.
They can not back that up and there will be no EU or US soldiers in Ukraine.
That was clearly stated as a red line from the start and would mean retaliation against the countries that took part. WW3
The west didn't dare risk it when they were in a much better position. Certainly not now.
