"Doesn't Ukrainian President Own A Suit?" US Financier Blasted For Criticising Zelensky's Outfit

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, dressed in khaki green t-shirt, made an emotive appeal to US lawmakers for more sanctions against Russia.

An American financial commentator is facing the heat online for publicly criticising Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky's clothing choice during his virtual address to the US Congress on Wednesday. Zelensky issued an emotive appeal to US lawmakers for greater Western intervention against Russia and implement a no-fly zone over Ukraine. I understand times are hard, but doesn't the President of the #Ukraine own a suit? I don't have much respect for current members of the U.S. Congress either, but I still wouldn't address them wearing a t-shirt. I wouldn't want to disrespect the institution or the Unites States. He would not have had to press a suit. I'm sure he had a clean suit hanging in the same closet as his t-shirts. Plus even if there were not suits available, maybe a long-sleeved shirt with a collar.

The Ukrainian President delivered the remarks in his no-trademark khaki green t-shirt. And shortly after, Schiff tweeted, “I understand times are hard, but doesn't the President of the #Ukraine own a suit?”
