Richard Grenell defended President Trump’s criticism of Zelenskyy being a “dictator," saying that the president is focused on what is best for the American people.

Trump has been deeply critical of the Ukrainian president in recent days while offering friendlier words about his Russian counterpart.

President Donald Trump said he's had "good talks" with Russia's Vladimir Putin but not with Ukraine, and that he's "sick" of how Volodymyr Zelenskyy has handled the war.
