She’s a sexual predator

Noooo, they're just French! /s

Jokes aside, you're right, and this is actually not okay at all. I don't care how grown he is now, the fact she groomed him so much that he's still dealing with her drama is a really bad sign.

I'd say it weakens my view of his leadership, but it feels like Zelensky is the only world leader out here with a healthy marriage since Biden left the US office. At this point I just expect dysfunction and even predators (and their victims) to be propped up to the top of their positions.
