Donald Trump made clear that his personal grudge with Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelensky hasn’t abated during a phone interview with NBC News.

Speaking with Meet the Press anchor Kristen Welker on Saturday, the president knocked Zelensky for offering assistance to the U.S. and Middle Eastern countries, the latter of which the Ukrainian president said on Friday were seeking his aid in sharing drone detection technology.

The “last person we need help from is Zelensky,” Trump told Welker.

    Ukraine is winning because they found cheaper drone defenses than drones…

    Were burning thru our sophisticated interceptors because we’re wasting them on drones 1/100th the prices.

    Iran just has to keep pumping out the same drones they’ve been sending to Russia.

    Like, Ukraine is literally the one government that knows how to win this kind of war.

      Haaaaaaang on.

      Are you saykng that Iran has been supplying Russia with drones, and now they’ll be keeping them to use against the USA, for the explicit purpose of being destroyed?

      So, wouldn’t this mean Russia loses their supply? So wouldn’t that mean it’s actually in Zelenskyys best interest to NOT help the USA?

      If USA ends their war quickly, Iran starts supplying Russia again with drones. But until that happens, wouldn’t Ukraine have an easier time in their own war?

        Yes, Russia will lose a part of their supply.

        They will also gain a lot of money they can use to buy things from other places.
