Donald Trump has called Volodymyr Zelensky a "dictator" in a scathing social media attack.
The US President said his Ukrainian counterpart had done a "terrible job" and that he "better move fast or he is not going to have a country left".
He said:"I love Ukraine, but Zelensky has done a terrible job, his Country is shattered, and millions have unnecessarily died – And so it continues..."
He said Zelensky, who he labelled a "modestly successful comedian", had talked America into spending $350billion to "go into a war that couldn't be won".
"He refuses to have Elections, is very low in Ukrainian Polls, and the only thing he was good at was playing Biden 'like a fiddle'," he added.
"A Dictator without Elections, Zelensky better move fast or he is not going to have a Country left."
Mr Trump said the US was "successfully negotiating an end to the War with Russia" in the meantime, something that "all admit" only his administration can achieve.
President Trump also attacked European leaders on his media platform Truth Social.
He said: “The United States has spent $200 Billion Dollars more than Europe, and Europe’s money is guaranteed, while the United States will get nothing back.
"Why didn’t Sleepy Joe Biden demand Equalization, in that this War is far more important to Europe than it is to us — We have a big, beautiful Ocean as separation.”
He added: “Biden never tried, Europe has failed to bring Peace, and Zelensky probably wants to keep the ‘gravy train’ going."
