The claim that Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky used Russian profanity during his meeting with US President Donald Trump and Vice President J.D. Vance at the White House has caused a stir on social media.
It was reported that during the meeting in the Oval Office, US officials criticized Ukraine for being unwilling to engage in peace negotiations with Russia.
It was stated that Trump and Vance characterized the Kyiv administration's stance as "gambling with World War III" and expressed that there was "ingratitude" toward the military support provided by the US.
During the discussion, it was reported that Vance pointed out the difficulties in the recruitment process in Ukraine and argued that the Kyiv administration should seek a peaceful solution with Moscow. It was noted that Zelensky reacted to these remarks, questioning how Vance could evaluate the country's situation without having visited Ukraine.
Vance, for his part, alleged that foreign leaders who come to Ukraine are subjected to "government-led propaganda tours."
SWEARING ALLEGATION ON THE AGENDA
In footage shared on social media, it was alleged that while Zelensky was reacting to Vance's words during the debate, he muttered Russian profanity while his microphone was open. In the footage, it was noticed that the Ukrainian leader averted his eyes and said some words that were difficult to understand.
It was reported that some social media users and Russian sources claimed that Zelensky used the phrases "suka, blyad." It is known that these expressions, which are common worldwide especially among gaming communities, do not necessarily carry the intent of a direct insult, but can be used to express frustration or anger.
No official statement has been made yet by either Ukrainian or US authorities regarding the matter.
