President Vladimir Zelensky has few supporters within Donald Trump's inner circle. The strained relations between the two leaders threaten to undermine Ukraine's position in peace negotiations with the Russian Federation.

"This is nothing new to me. I heard a few months ago that it was time for elections and new leadership," an insider told The New York Post.

Another source stated that "the best scenario for Zelensky and peace is for him to immediately leave for France."

A White House representative, speaking on condition of anonymity, shared their views on Zelensky, saying: "like the Pope, I am not a supporter of banning the church."

This likely refers to the law prohibiting the activities of religious organizations associated with the Russian Federation in Ukraine, which Zelensky signed in August.

Recall that earlier "Telegraph" reported that U.S. President Donald Trump called Ukrainian President Vladimir Zelensky a "dictator" and threatened with the risk of "losing the country." Additionally, he reiterated that he is "successfully conducting negotiations with Russia" to end the war.

Moreover, Trump recently stated that elections need to be held in Ukraine because trust in Zelensky has fallen to 4%.

By the way, "Telegraph" previously reported on the actual support rating of Zelensky among Ukrainians. The president himself responded to Donald Trump regarding his rating, calling it a misrepresentation.
