Reform UK leader Nigel Farage and US president Donald Trump are both controversial political figures but they have come out in each other’s support on more occasions than one.
However, Farage distanced himself from Trump yesterday after the latter hit out at Ukrainian president Volodymyr Zelenskyy, calling him a ‘dictator’.
Speaking to GB News from Washington DC, Farage said: “You should always take everything Donald Trump says seriously, you shouldn’t always take things Donald Trump says absolutely literally. I think that applies very much in this case.”
He later added: “Let’s be clear, Zelenskyy is not a dictator. But it’s only right and proper that Ukrainians have a timeline for elections.”
Trump called Volodymyr Zelenskyy a “dictator”, after the Ukrainian president said Trump lives in a ‘disinformation bubble’.
Trump wrote: “A Dictator without Elections, Zelenskyy better move fast or he is not going to have a Country left.”
Speaking in Kyiv, Zelensky, lambasted Trump for pushing “a lot of disinformation coming from Russia”.
