Hypocrite: Ukrainian President criticises Conor McGregor for meeting Putin but doesn’t mention Biden, Bono, Geldof or any other celeb who previously met Putin too




The Ukrainian comedian who now happens to be the President Volodymyr Zelensky criticised the mixed martial arts fighter Conor McGregor when he met with senior Irish politicians, the Irish Independent reports.

According to the Indo, Zelensky told the Irish delegation that he used to be a fan of McGregor’s but said he changed his opinion of him simply because he met the Russian President Vladimir Putin.

The utter hypocrisy of this is beyond belief. Zelensky has his hand out to every Western country in the world and has never once denounced the innumerable meetings that the likes of Joe Biden, George Bush, Boris Johnson, Bob Geldof, Bono or any other celebrity who happened to meet Putin along their way.

Conor McGregor met with Vladimir Putin at the 2018 World Cup final in Russia where the two had a friendly conversation.

It would appear that Zelensky is taking pure pot shots at McGregor, possibly because he’s not a politician, whereas he appears to lick the ground that so-called “world leaders” walk on.

For many people, the hypocrisy of Zelensky is beginning to ware thin.
