Norwegian Prime Minister Jonas Gahr Stre has dismissed as deeply unfounded the remarks by US President Donald Trump, who called Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy a dictator.
Source Norwegian public broadcaster NRK, as reported by European Pravda Details Trump called Zelenskyy a dictator and stated that he must act quickly if Ukraine wants to survive as a country.
Quote from Stre I think this is deeply unfounded.
He Zelenskyy ed.
is a democratically elected president with an overwhelming majority of votes, caught in the middle of the fullscale war.
Details Stre was also supported by Norwegian opposition.
Quote from Liberal Party leader Guri Melby This is dangerous and blatantly false from President Trump.
It is sad to realise that there are hardly any shared values left across the Atlantic.
It is now clear that Trump wants Putin to win. The only right course of action for Norway now is to strengthen support for Ukraine, modernise our own defence and build closer ties with Europe.
Background Earlier, Zelenskyy responded to Trumps claim that only 4 of Ukrainians supported him.
In particular, the Ukrainian president stressed that Trump had fallen victim to Russian disinformation.
Former UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson also dismissed Trumps claims about Zelenskyys low rating, stating that the Ukrainian presidents approval is comparable to Trumps own.
