After that, what is there left to say? The scenes in the Oval Office on Friday were so scandalous and dispiriting that it has been, in the responses in Europe, as if a floodgate has been opened. European leader after European leader has issued righteous statements praising President Zelensky and promising continued support to the embattled Ukrainian government. In social media posts there has been a great outpouring of disgust from Europeans at the ritual humiliation forced on Zelensky, although remember it is not universal. Note how quiet are Nigel Farage and the populists, who broadly share Trump’s analysis of Ukraine and his great-power, might- is-right dynamics. On the internut, sorry internet, you’ll find plenty of this from a minority, in Britain at least, saying Zelensky had it coming. The heart sinks to read it.
