Members of US Vice President J.D. Vance’s team tried to reach Valery Zaluzhny after a public argument between Donald Trump and Volodymyr Zelensky in the White House.
This was reported in The Guardian, citing sources.
After the argument in the Oval Office between Trump and Zelensky, the US Vice President’s team tried to arrange a call to Zaluzhny, but to no avail.
It is noted that Vance played a major role in provoking the confrontation between the presidents in the White House.
The publication notes that after the dispute, Vance and other people from Trump’s entourage were looking for potential alternatives to the “problematic” Zelensky.
“Vance’s team tried various diplomatic and other channels to reach Zaluzhny,” the Guardian source noted.
The publication emphasizes that Zaluzhny, after consulting with Zelensky’s administration, refused to answer the call.
“The refusal to accept the call from Vance indicates Zaluzhny’s political balancing act since he was dismissed from the post of commander-in-chief,” the publication noted.
According to journalists, Zaluzhny remains loyal to the government, as a former military man accustomed to discipline, but many see him as “the natural next president of Ukraine and call on him to start a political career.”
Recall that on February 28, during a meeting at the White House, a public dispute occurred between Zelensky, Trump, and US Vice President J.D. Vance. As a result, the signing of the mineral agreement was postponed, and Volodymyr Zelensky left the White House early . After the public dispute, the President of Ukraine gave an interview to Fox News. In it, he explained his position .
It is worth noting that Valeriy Zaluzhny previously stated that the war with Russia has entered a new phase — a competition not for territory, but for the destruction of the nation’s ability to resist .
