@25kV perhaps the most relatable picture of a head of state ever taken.

@25kV Yeah, I'm usually not even that close to the crowd. I am that short though. 🤣

@25kV The only man not wearing dress shoes. I'd would be next to him in a heartbeat talking shoes.......

@25kV
PLEASE LET HYBRID NEVER END

@25kV they don't know I'm a big star on Fox news

@25kV Look, everyone's just extra cautious because they saw what happened to the last guy who invaded his personal space.

@25kV
I know just the feeling.
That said I don't think VZ is that guy. Former TV comic actor. I'm thinking "blue dress lady" is his wife and he's waiting for her to have a moment with "black dress lady" before moving to the next part of the day.

@25kV same page club

@25kV There is only really one "real" leader there. How many career politicians in this day and age would remain in country if it was a conflict zone

@25kV There was some old-time comic, I think from the post-WW 2 era, who had a line that went, “Did you ever feel like the world is a tuxedo, and you’re pair of brown shoes?”

@25kV I understand the humor, but I see a heroic leader who refuses to be pretentious by wearing an expensive suit that he’d absolutely rock, looking lovingly at his wife and mother of his two children all of which he rarely gets to see, and taking a moment to respectfully watch his wife smile and chat with another woman. A man who has seen men, women, and children of his beloved country Ukraine be killed in horrific ways in a horrific war. A man who refuses to abandon defending them. 🇺🇦

@25kV Two of the people standing there look like they should be in a Richard Curtis rom-com.

@25kV This guy used to be a comedian. What a life arc.

@25kV I don’t like to attempt to psychoanalyze people just based on a single picture, but… I feel like he carries a level of trauma that the other leaders here simply don’t.

@25kV The outsider. Shameful. 🇺🇦

@25kV this was tasteless, I hope you take it down. He is a leader of a country in war, invaded by nazis, committing genocide as we speak.

@25kV Same.

@25kV God, yes. When I go to work events it's like Made in Chelsea. Definitely *not* a crowd I'm used to.

@25kV I guess dressing as an outsider, a politician close to his people, wearing a military look was a conscious fashion choice.
Which I dont think is a bad thing - I am just wondering about all the comments declaring him a hero / an introvert / whatever instead of pointing out the obvious politician he is. He is making politician fashion choices to appear in a certain way, there is nothing special about it.
(Not trying to bash him for doing so, its his job.)

@25kV he’s avoiding Macron’s embrace.

@25kV such a painful picture..

@25kV same.

@25kV Out in the open, too. No wall you can lean against and just observe without being noticed too much. Yikes.
He's also got the vibe of "oh, I thought you were looking at me when you waved, not the person behind me.... awkward."

@25kV I feel this very much

@25kV I feel called out....

@25kV Amen. I hate going to those things.

@25kV I can't think of a better visual metaphor for Europe. Maybe add a swimming pool full of people drowning.

@25kV Yep. Same here.
