Brian Glenn has doubled down on his comments, saying the outcome of the White House meeting proves ‘you can judge a book by its cover’

Although there are much more pressing issues at hand, Volodymyr Zelenskyy’s fashion sense has been a prominent topic of conversation this week.

And the pro-President Trump reporter who slammed his style choices has now doubled down on his criticism of the Ukrainian leader’s rig-out in a scathing new statement.

The Ukrainian President, 47, often sports more casual attire than his international counterparts who tend to wear expensive suits.

Take earlier this week for example, when Zelenskyy opted to don a military-style outfit as he headed to the White House to sit down with Donald Trump.

For the meeting – which ended up with the US President warning the European leader he was ‘gambling with WWIII’ – he wore black trousers, boots and a black jumper which was embroidered with the Ukrainian trident.

Trump couldn’t resist slipping a sarcastic comment in regarding Zelenskyy’s wardrobe as he greeted him at the entrance to the West Wing on Friday (28 February).

As the pair shook hands, Trump joked: “He is all dressed up today.”

While he was at the White House, journalist Brian Glenn also took the opportunity to get a jab in at the Ukrainian leader, as he asked why he wasn’t wearing a suit for the sit down in the Oval Office.

The Chief White House Correspondent for conservative outlet Real America’s Voice and avid Trump supporter – who also apparently moonlights as the fashion police – said to Zelenskyy: “You’re the highest level in this country’s office and you refuse to wear a suit.

“Just want to see if you, do you own a suit? A lot of Americans have problems with you not respecting the dignity of his office.”

Zelenskyy then calmly responded: “I will wear costume after this war will finish. Maybe something like yours, maybe something better. We will see, maybe something cheaper.”

Rumours have since circulated that Trump was seen ‘slyly winking’ at Glenn, seemingly in a bid to encourage the journalist to rile up Zelenskyy.

According to Sky News, the Ukrainian president was advised by Trump’s team to wear something more formal, but he seems to have decided to stick to his guns instead.

In wake of the ongoing discourse surrounding Zelenskyy’s wardrobe, Glenn has issued an ‘official response’ to the controversy in a post on X.

Although he has ‘extreme empathy’ for Ukrainians and ‘all of those involved in this destructive war’, Glenn insisted his comments about Zelenskyy’s clothing were still valid.

Glenn wrote: “The United States has given Ukraine over $120b (some say it’s close to 300b) in assistance. That’s hard earned tax dollars from Americans. (Which most Americas are against funding).

“President Zelenskyy has worn the green jumpsuit (or something similar) on every occasion when meeting other world leaders, dressed respectfully for the occasion.

“For him, once again, to enter the highest office in the most powerful nation in the world, dressed as he did, reflects his inner disrespect for not only our country, the President and the US citizens that have made it possible for Ukraine to survive as long as they have to this point. (Financially speaking).

“Moments after my exchange with President Zelenskyy, we began to hear a slightly different tone/mood from him when engaging with President Trump and VP JD Vance as his attire in-fact did begin to reflect his overall attitude towards the negotiations. So yes, you can judge a book by its cover.

“With that said, I pray for an ending to this war and peace in that region. Thank you.”
