Zelensky’s visit to Washington on Feb. 28 is a complete political failure, Zakharova said

MOSCOW: Russia said Saturday that Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky’s trip to the United States had been a complete “failure,” after US President Donald Trump berated him in a stunning televised confrontation.
“The visit of the head of the neo-Nazi regime, V. Zelensky, to Washington on February 28 is a complete political and diplomatic failure of the Kyiv regime,” Russian foreign ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova said in a statement.
