President Volodymyr Zelenskyy believes that the performance of Joe Biden’s administration in supporting Ukraine can only be assessed over time.
He stated this in an interview with The Guardian.
A journalist asked Zelenskyy whether Biden would go down in history as the person who helped save Ukraine or as someone who reacted too slowly to Putin’s challenge.
According to the article, Zelenskyy laughed and said that at the moment, it is “very difficult” to answer.
He criticized Biden’s initial reluctance to provide Ukraine with weapons, stating that “this mistrust gave Russia confidence,” but added that Kyiv is grateful for all the aid that followed.
“History shows that there are many things you simply don’t know—what was happening behind the scenes, what negotiations took place… It’s hard to characterize all of this today because we don’t know everything. Later, we will know, we will know everything,” Zelenskyy said.
According to a January Gallup poll, Americans mostly believe that Joe Biden’s presidency will be judged more negatively than positively in the future.
It is worth recalling that Zelenskyy previously publicly criticized Biden’s administration for refusing to invite Ukraine into NATO.
