what was particularly striking to me about it was to remember that up until a few years ago vladimir zelinsky was a sitcom comedian. playing a sitcom comedian who becomes the president of his country in an illustration of life imitating art to the most bizarre degree and but but part of what was so striking about that was that in that really first major interaction with the president of the united states. they had a perfunctory phone call of congratulations some months before that, but in his first meaningful interaction with the president of the united states what happens but the president of the united states tries to shake him down in a conversation where even then he was asking for javelins you might recall because even then ukrainians were fighting and dying at the hands of russians and russian-back separatists at the rate of every week sometimes every day. now it wasn't the intense warfare. we're seeing now, but nonetheless it was a hot war he was in desperate need of support from the most important ally and what happens the president united states says well, you know. he wants this fav
