I’d just like to point out that this picture is particularly impressive.
You are not supposed to touch the Crown Prince in any circumstances.
Seeing him embrace Zelensky speaks volumes.
Just to make sure I got the right Arabic prince here, that’s the guy who ordered Khashoggi’s death, right?
I’m not above realpolitik, if his interests actually align with supporting Ukraine I’m happy to hear it.
Yea, and he’s the reformist in that monarchy, pretty bleak 🤫
I don’t like MBS but if they help Ukraine, I’m all for it.
I don’t like politicians whose name is abbreviated like that anyway :/
Signed, DAM
Martin Butter Sing?
Mohammed Bone Saw

It’s abbreviated because there’s like 50 kebab dictators all named “Mohammed Bin Something” and it’s annoying to spell out the whole name to disambiguate them
How many world leaders are named ‘Bin Salman’? I’m pretty sure just one.

Why is zelensky talking to scum like him? This fuck should never be accepted anywhere.
Fuck MBS. This is disappointing to see. (Unless i am missing something, i haven’t been keeping track with news up to late)
The US turned heel on Ukraine and Zelensky needs support to beat the Nazis.
Thanks for the explanation. This is severely disappointing to see, but it’s a necessary evil. :/
Wasnt their main role as a mediator for negotiations? I think yall are overreacting a bit.
From the mod linked AP article:
Zelenskyy met with the kingdom’s powerful crown prince Monday evening, with the president saying they “had a detailed discussion on the steps and conditions needed to end the war and secure a reliable and lasting peace.”
“Saudi Arabia provides a crucial platform for diplomacy, and we appreciate this,” Zelenskyy said online.
Why is zelensky talking to scum like him?
Same reason he was sitting across from JD Vance and Trump to begin with. Any port in a storm.
Fuck MBS. This is disappointing to see.
Its a predictable response when you recognize that the Saudis are largely an extension of western hegemony in the region. I wouldn’t be surprsied if someone like Rex Tillerson or Liz Cheney brokered the meeting.
Oh sorry I thought everyone knew… The thing is, his country is being invaded, everything he has and every loved one he knows are fighting for their lives and survival against a brutal psychotic dictator
I can only assume Zelensky said ‘thank you.’
Lets see Trump ask the Crown Prince if he even owns a suit…
Do not berate the stockholders.
F MBS. POS

Interesting. I thought he was with putin & trump. It would be nice if they help Ukraine though.
MBS wants to increase the diplomatic footprint of SA. It is likely they want to be the ones that facilitated a cease fire in Ukraine, rather than defend a democracy against imperialism.
At the very least, this is a wonderful photo op for MBS, regardless of outcome.
Honestly yeah that was my take too. I would be shaking like a shitting dog if I was Zelensky going to meet MBS. The stones on that guy.
