US President Donald Trump cannot believe that he called Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy a "dictator." This was his response to a journalist's question, informs The Telegraph.
BBC political editor Chris Mason asked the US President whether he still stands by his previous statement referring to Zelenskyy as a "dictator without elections."
"Did I say that? I can't believe I said that," Trump replied.
Trump’s statement about Zelenskyy
About a week ago, expressing his dissatisfaction over the fact that Ukraine is not holding presidential elections during the war, Trump called Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy a "dictator without elections."
Recently, during a press conference, Zelenskyy responded to Trump's remarks about him being a "dictator." In his view, Trump's words cannot be considered a "compliment." At the same time, he reminded that he was legally elected in democratic elections.
Additionally, Trump has refused to call Kremlin leader Vladimir Putin a dictator.
