I don’t think so,You are only invited if, and only if, the host (USA) wants you to be. You can use European media and European leaders to post on x as if they were bots, population appeal does not work with the US, Europe is bankrupt, it does not have abundant natural wealth.Russian gas, American LNG, they’re screwed, old people’s pensions

Come Zelenskyy if you were equal or close to it you wouldn’t need US help. That’s the problem. You’re not equal and unfortunately that means you get a lot less say. And I’m saying this as someone from an even smaller and unimportant country

In a post-Westphalian technical sense, sure, in the practical sense, a beggar isn’t taller than his benefactor. If there’s more nuance here, I don’t pay for a NYT subscription.

>It was very important for me that the Ukrainian position was heard. I would not want it to be unclear. I just think that it was important that it was heard [in the Oval Office] and not only at the negotiating table where Putin will be.
So basically negotiating against US interests in their own Oval Office on national TV with a president that holds grudges and is also supplying your money and weapons. Unless I characterize the situation wrong, there is no way else to look at it except Zelenskyy bring a fool through desperation and/or pride.
