Zelensky met Western leaders in Kyiv wearing his pants backwards, – says the Daily Mail

Social media users took notice of a photo of Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky in which his trousers appear to be worn backward. The image, taken during his recent meeting with European leaders in Kyiv, quickly went viral.

This was reported by the Daily Mail.

The outlet published a series of photos from the meeting between Western leaders and the Ukrainian president, who was accompanied by his wife, Olena Zelenska. Commentators joked that Zelensky seemed to struggle with his pants, as the image appeared to show a zipper at the back.

According to the Daily Mail, there is no confirmation that the Ukrainian president actually wore his trousers backward. The speculation about Zelensky’s appearance surfaced after French President Emmanuel Macron was recently at the center of a scandal — accused of allegedly hiding a white powder packet during a visit to Ukraine.

Earlier, the Élysée Palace issued a statement denying rumors of Macron’s cocaine use and clarified that the item he concealed was simply a napkin. However, even that official statement was met with skepticism and labeled as disinformation by some.
