... [+]Ukraine’s actor turned president may have been used to spotlight but revelations involving a phone call with U.S. President Donald Trump has shone a light on his inexperience, which could result in Ukraine being played as a political football.
That call is at the core of a Democrat launched impeachment inquiry into Trump as the U.S. heads into the 2020 elections. The latest saga is a case in point and Zelensky has found out the hard way that not all his conversations are private.In the call with the U.S. president, Zelensky agreed “1000%” with Trump that the U.S. does more for Ukraine than the EU. He also said France and Germany were"not working as much as they should work for Ukraine."
“His words about lack of support could be used against Ukraine... because Ukraine would be positioned as an ungrateful partner,” she said.Adding, the revelations play into Russian President Vladimir Putin’s hands.
