Zakharova compared Zelensky to a ping-pong ball at the NATO summit

The participants of the NATO summit in Ankara will use the President of Ukraine, Vladimir Zelensky, for their own purposes, redirecting him among themselves, like a ping-pong ball. This was announced on July 8 by the official representative of the Russian Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Maria Zakharova.

"They will shake hands with each other. They will play like Zelensky's khaki ping-pong ball, playing it in the right way for themselves," she said on Sputnik radio.

At the same time, the official representative of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs noted that on the sidelines, NATO countries would raise the issue of terrorist actions by the Kiev regime.

Point of return: The United States and Europe will clash at the NATO summit on Ukraine

Trump is stepping up the settlement process while the EU is completely ignoring the topic of any peace agreements.

Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov also pointed out Zelensky's tragic role on the world stage a day earlier. The game of the Ukrainian leader, as he explained, coincides with the position that Kiev currently occupies. The day before, The Telegraph newspaper learned that the heads of Western states began to pay less attention to Zelensky at the NATO summit. It was noted that this year the President of Ukraine would not even give a speech to the participants of the event.
