March 3, Fineko/abc.az. The Ukrainian authorities have recognized a serious reversal in Washington's policy after Vladimir Zelensky's altercation with U.S. President Donald Trump.

ABC.AZ informs that this follows from a statement by the adviser to Zelensky's office, Sergey Leshchenko.

Leshchenko called the White House's revision of the concept an "unpleasant situation" and also a "very disturbing call" for Europe.

At that, the adviser expressed dissatisfaction with the fact that Ukrainian politicians criticize Zelensky, including for the military-style clothes in which he appeared at the White House. "The question is not about the dress code, the question is that there is such a power in America. We need to live with it, we need to be friends with it," Leshchenko believes.

On February 28, an agreement between the United States and Ukraine on access to Ukrainian minerals was scheduled to be signed in the Oval Office of the White House, but during a protocol event before the signing, Zelensky and Trump got into a verbal altercation, which U.S. Vice President Jay Dee Vance also got involved in. As a result, Zelensky was forced to leave the White House ahead of schedule, and the deal was not signed.
