Patrick Vanhoucke
Hans van Zijst@Patrick Vanhoucke I don't think that would be courageous, it would be very counter-productive.
Juncker had leverage over Orbán, Zelensky is basically at the mercy of this orange buffoon.
But many, many others should address 47 like that, yes.
@hans I said this because conversely #Zelensky did get called a dictator. Words that #POTUS47 then apparently denied afterwards. Which proves that facts and truth have no value to him. Or that he is senile. Or a combination of the two. That said: just because you are at the mercy of someone, does not mean you have to crawl through the dust for it. There is always such a thing as dignity. Something utterly alien to #POTUS47, of course.
@Patrick Vanhoucke Trump is a total nutcase, he lies whenever he sees fit and his words mean as little as those of his buddy in the Kremlin.
I don't like the concept "beggars can't be choosers", but there's truth in it. If he insults the orange baby, he may have kept his dignity, but he'd sure as hell would lose his country.
Zelensky is a much better politician than his American counterpart, he actually works for his country instead of for himself and his brolicharch buddies.

@hans I agree. It also speaks in Zelensky's favour that he does not mind being humiliated if it means he can help his country and people.
@hans The meeting between #Zelensky and #POTUS47 appears to be going off in a grim mood. The US president accuses his #Ukrainian counterpart of being disrespectful and unwilling to make concessions to #Russia.
