> If there is one thing that you should never, ever do, is question America's willingness to peak a fight.

But the choose to fight and it’s not on their home ground. Totally different situation. You can’t just leave if you begin to lose like in Vietnam and Afghanistan.

They never faced the win or lose everything situation since their independence.






This is known to be a contributing factor as to why 9/11 had such a dramatical cultural impact.

But you don't go say it to the US President, least of all Trump, in front of cameras!

You're taken "you're surrounded by oceans on both sides" the wrong way. Zelensky was quoting Trump from just minutes before, where he himself said something along the lines of "we're going to be fine, there's an ocean between us and europe. no matter what happens, we're going to be fine". How do you justify saying something that irresponsible to a leader of an allied nation that is currently defending itself against an autocrat invasion?

Zelenskyy: A lot of questions. Let's start from the beginning. First of all, during the war, everybody has problems, even you, but you have a nice ocean and but don't feel now, but you will feel it in the future.

Trump: You don't know that.

Zelenskyy: God bless, you will not have a war...

So, it is what it is, and you need to be careful of what you say when dealing with people like Trump, especially in front of the cameras.
