Zelenskyy calls Putin a ‘dumbass’

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has some choice words for Russian President Vladimir Putin: You’re a dumbass.

“People are dying, and he thinks it’s ‘interesting’ … Dumbass,” Zelenskyy wrote on social media, captioning a video of Putin talking about Moscow’s invasion of Ukraine.

Speaking during his annual televised press conference, Putin claimed that Russia’s Oreshnik missile cannot be intercepted by air defenses and urged the West and Ukraine to “conduct a technological experiment.”

“Let’s call it a high-tech duel of the 21st century. Let them determine some site to hit, let’s say in Kyiv, concentrate all their air defenses there, and we will strike there with the Oreshnik and see what happens,” Putin said. “It’s interesting.”

Zelenskyy also hit out at Putin during Thursday’s European Council summit in Brussels, telling reporters the Russian dictator is “crazy.”

“I think Putin is very dangerous, he doesn’t care about human lives … I think he is crazy, really,” Zelenskyy said after meeting with European heads of government. “He loves to kill.”
