Zelenskyy Hosts Far-Right Activist Loomer in Kyiv Interview, Stirring Kyiv-Washington Currents
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy met with Laura Loomer, a far-right American activist and Trump ally, for an interview on her Rumble show—marking a thaw in Loomer’s previously hostile stance toward Ukraine. Zelenskyy’s office called the visit important, while Loomer acknowledged past criticisms of Kyiv and claimed she’s moved beyond Russian propaganda. The encounter underscores ongoing complexities in Kyiv-Washington dynamics, as parts of Trump’s base remain skeptical of continued U.S. support for Ukraine even as the Biden administration seeks a path to resolution.
