What a shitty headline! He was a guest and was diplomatic. It's trump and cance that were horrid russian bullies - I'm still shocked at what I witnessed. Did you ask those russian assets if they would apologize??
Australia 🇦🇺 fully supports Ukraine 🇺🇦 and Zelenskyy as stated by Prime Minister Albanese #auspol
The President and his pathetic side kick Vance embarrassed themselves and the free world with their outrageous rhetoric and support for dictator Putin.
The global realignment has begun.
He has absolutely nothing to apologize for. It’s Traitors like Trump and Vance who should be apologizing. The entire global community is now even more supportive of Ukraine 🇺🇦 than ever before. Fuck Trump he is Putins puppet and an embarrassment for all Americans.
Zelenskyy should never have to apologize for the disgraceful antics that were on full display in the Oval Office. That meeting was orchestrated with the sole purpose to belittle and bully Ukraine into submission for Russia.
CNBC.
tRUmp & Vance’s behavior was DESPICABLE!!!
You & 1/2 this country’s continued butt licking of this totally reprehensible sorry excuse for a human being is mind boggling.
Not one redeeming quality.
Not. One.
Of course you’re all in on this thug. You’re him. This is who you are. All of it.
Terrible headline, Vance and Trump are the ones who owe Zelenskyy an apology. And to the American people for embarrassing our country and surrendering to Putin.
Wtf is this headline?? I know CNBC is dependent on ignorant Wall Street bros who are ok with authoritarianism and corruption, but have some integrity! The man has NOTHING to apologize for. Trump should be apologizing to the world for behaving like a spoiled little child.
That ambush meeting was a sickening display of intentionally bullying an ally. Today trump chose Putin openly and on camera. Shame on you CNBC for demanding an apology from Zelenskyy. Seems it is Russia, Russia, Russia after all and you jokers are on the wrong side.
Biden got pissed at the little rat grifter back in 2023 when he was begging for more weapons and sh!t! I say good luck Rat Grifter, The Orange Crush isn't so forgiving!
Why in god’s name would Zelenskyy apologise? He was strong and dignified, while Trump and Vance acted like petulant schoolyard bullies and treated him like shit.
He should not apologize. It was a setup to make it look like Ukraine was not cooperating. And that was done so Trump can make a sweet deal for his boss, Vladimir Putin.
Trump is a despot who should be removed from office.
They are the ones who need to apologise.
Hopefully Australia will cut ties with the US now they have alienated themselves with Russia.
The US is no longer our allies.
President Trump and Vice President Vance repeatedly refused to apologize for their stunning clash with Zelenskyy, a brave and impressive leader who is leading his country in battle against a brutal dictator.
Oh my… THIS right here is THE most lazy, inaccurate, ignorant, lacking any skill or integrity, summary. Whoever wrote this should be ashamed. NBC you have a problem. You have a massive problem.
Everything came full circle for #putin today. He got what he wanted. #Krasnov #trump I wished there was a way to let President Zelenskyy that some of us Americans don't buy into the white russian with the orange zest bulls**t. #trump has a severe case of HUA (head up a**). THAT was embarrassing.
Stop with the gaslighting. Anyone who watched what went on in that room knows that President Zelenskyy was repeatedly belittled & bullied by the acting pres & vp. Shame on this country for allowing this embarrassing spectacle to take place.
He really has nothing to apologize for Trump pushed the agenda. But to stock trumps ego that’s what it would take but again Trump will lecture him again. Art of the deal my ass.
President Zelensky owes this government, or this nation, no apology. Those of us with a brain know exactly what that live TV theatrical display was all about. It was a room full of pro putin sycophants performing for an audience of one, Vlad.
If you all had any kahunas you would call it so too
Apologize for what? Ukraine was attacked. They are defending themselves. I still remember those pregnant women losing their lives and their babies because the Russians are not people.
Good for Zelenskyy, he's dealing with a gangster presenting a protection, extortion play. Allies and friends don't extort friends. Fuck Trump and the U.S.
Zelensky has ABSOLUTELY NOTHING TO APOLOGIZE FOR.
America, on the other hand, should apologize for a plurality of voters putting Trump back in the Oval Office instead of being on track to serve his sentence(s) in jail for crimes for which he's been convicted.
Vance? Don't get me started.
The only apologies to be issued should come from Trump and Vance for their childish bully behavior, dishing out abuse never seen by any presidential administration in American history.
Discusting 🤮. What a betrayal. No security guarantees, no place in negotiation table - just extortion for fucking minerals Elon is after, double play with Russia to get back to business as usual - we see you! You piece of 💩💩
There is no reason for President Zelensky to apologize. Any other framing from @cnbc.com or any other media outlet would be disingenuous at best and complicit with Putin and Agent #Krasnov at worst. Slava Ukraini 🇺🇦
Except to MAGA and the republican administration, Zelenskyy played them perfectly. Listen to what chaos has heard from the briefings.
* I can’t call Putin a dictator… but i can call you one.
* you need us
* WW III
So, pretty much admits that if he does not support Ukraine he will be responsible /1
I am SO f'n sick of CNBC. Does that Musk-Rat own you?
THE ONLY thing PRESIDENT Zelenskyy would need to apologize for is IF HE JUMPED UP & CHOKED the living $hit out of that orange turd, vp.tRUMP. That is what I would have done & if HE did it & apologized - apology NOT accepted.
We should also consider that this scandal was provoked by Trump and Vance. Some strangely provocative questions about Zelenskie's clothing from the obviously carefully selected press people make it look very suspicious. That's not how you treat guests!
Zelenskyy was set up from the get-go. The fact that he didn't sink to the occasion just pissed them off. I say the FOTUS and his fake hillbilly v.p. owe President Zelenskyy, the Ukranian people, and their allies an apology.

I’m embarrassed for you gays

That orange ass and that eyeliner should apologize to him
“HIS stunning clash?”
The racist, rapist gameshow host and the gulyliner-ed couch fucker tried to humiliate him like they were his dad.
He refused to cower.
Zelensky is owed an apology.
America, on the other hand, should apologize for a plurality of voters putting Trump back in the Oval Office instead of being on track to serve his sentence(s) in jail for crimes for which he's been convicted.
Vance? Don't get me started.
Who started the clash?
Zelenskyy was the adult in the room and you know it.

Putin could take Ukraine, and republican administration US gets nothing. No metals, and an unstable region.
I say we send musk to run an election in the occupied states.
