One detail of President Trump’s meeting Monday with Volodymyr Zelensky drew particular notice: the Ukrainian president’s attire.Zelensky’s decision not to wear a suit at the two leaders’ February meeting in Washington sparked a testy exchange.

Trump had reportedly been offended by Zelensky’s decision to wear combat gear into the White House. But the Ukrainian president has no plans to wear a suit for Monday’s return to Washington DC, where he will this time be joined by European leaders in a show of unity following Trump’s in-person meeting with Vladimir Putin on Friday.
Doing so would require the Russian leader to “accept the failure of sitting down with a president he considers a joke from a country that doesn’t exist”
President Donald Trump and others mocked Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky in March when he showed up at the White House in his customary military-style fatigues. Zelensky apparently got the message.
Volodymyr Zelensky got his sartorial revenge at the White House, taking on reporter Brian Glenn, who has commented on his fashion choices before.
