Article is behind a wall, so couldn’t read it.

But the best explanation I’ve heard regarding Trump’s relationship with Ukraine and Zelenskyy is that he has a personal grudge against Zelenskyy because Zelenskyy wouldn’t play ball on investigating Biden.

On the other hand, Putin knows how easily Trump can be manipulated, so he has undoubtedly promised Trump something in exchange for Trump parroting the Russian line on the Ukraine war. Combine that with Trump‘s hatred for Zelenskyy and we’ve got all you need to know about the current situation. Trump wants Zelenskyy – and by extension Ukraine – to pay a price for failing to investigate Biden.

Deal making, retribution, and revenge explain the vast majority on Trump’s behavior.
