Did U.S. President Donald Trump call his Ukrainian counterpart Volodymyr Zelenskyy "a dictator"? Yes, that's true

By: Uliana Malashenko

Trump used the word "dictator" to describe Zelenskyy in a February 19, 2025, post on Truth Social. Despite that fact, Trump later attempted to cast doubt on his earlier description.

During a joint press appearance featuring Trump and British Prime Minister Keir Starmer in the Oval Office on February 27, 2025, a reporter asked Trump:

Mr. President, do still think that Mr. Zelenskyy is a dictator?

After a brief pause, Trump replied (at the 24:42 mark):

Did I say that? I can't believe I said that. Next question.




:rolleyes: :hafppy: :rolleyes:

Trump's response to the reporter appeared to cast doubt on the contents of his previous statements.

However, Trump did indeed use the word "dictator" to describe the Ukrainian president in a post published on Truth Social on February 19, 2025. In part, the entry read:

A Dictator without Elections, Zelenskyy better move fast or he is not going to have a Country left.
