Zelenskiy Faces Political Storm Amid Russian Glee

Russia has reacted with satisfaction to a heated confrontation between Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy and U.S. President Donald Trump in the White House. The clash, described as a "brutal dressing down" by former Russian President Dmitry Medvedev, has been seized upon by Moscow as evidence of Zelenskiy's waning political standing.
