Veteran -Democratic strategist David Axelrod revealed that the 'very strange' moment vice president opposed the president during the Zensky -Meltdown of Trump that nobody seemed to be bell.
The former Obama adviser pointed out that Vance, during the heated Oval Office office of yesterday, invaded Ukraine -with Axelrod who admitted: “That is something that the president will not say.”
In an interview with CNN, Alexrod let a great sigh before he unveiled the sound bite that “caught his ear,” and said it meant a rare time that Vance spoke publicly against the president.
“He tried to make a point that Ukraine was at stake a lot to end the war, but by making the point, he in fact spoke to the president who refuses to say the same thing,” he said.
“The only thing I think people missed that my ear caught,” he told CNN's Dana Bash. '[It] wax [how] Vance started by saying that Russia had invaded Ukraine and had destroyed a large part of the country, that is something that the president of the United States will not say. '
Obama's former adviser continued with the labeling of Vance the 'provocateur' of the day.
Axelrod also said that VANCE voted against 'the Spirit' of the United Nations earlier this week, in which the US chose the side of authoritarian regimes -including Russia, Noord -Korea, Wit -Russia and Hungary -opposed to a VN resolution that caused the Russian aggression to Ukraine.
“So that was very strange to me,” he added and said that the peace talks “were very filthy.”

“He tried to make a point that Ukraine was at stake a lot to end the war, but by making the point, he contradicted the president who refuses to say the same thing,” said Alexrod, “Alexrod said
Alexrod kept saying that there was a feeling of the intention to try to blow up this meeting. '
“I hope it is not to justify a withdrawal of help to Ukraine,” he said. “The words that did not come forward were safety.”
'The core of what was argued today was whether you could trust Vladamir Putin; Zensky said you couldn't and was based on his own experience and he spoke about why. '
“Trump said,” He never lied to me and can therefore trust me, “but what happens if Trump is a question, even if that was true,” Alexrod added.
“I think this is the core of this, they need security guarantees and without that peace through strength actually peace through surrender,” he concluded.
Bash replied that that was why Zensky then gave a 'history lesson' about why he did not trust Putin.
During the oval office of yesterday that ended with Zensky who abruptly left the White House after being asked to leave, Vance said: “For four years, the United States of America had a president who came up with press conferences and tough spoke about Vladimir Putin, and then Putin Oekraine fell in and destroyed an important chick of the country.”
Vance continued to say that “the path to peace and prosperity, perhaps, is diplomacy.”
The American Vice President JD Vance said: “For four years, the United States of America had a president who spoke to press conferences and tough about Vladimir Putin, and then Putin invaded Ukraine and destroyed a significant part of the country”

He described former President Joe Biden as' banging 'of the breast of the nation and' pretending the president of the words of the United States mattered more than [his] Actions. '
'What makes a good country is America that deals with diplomacy. That is what President Trump does, “he concluded.
Vance's remark, which suggests that Russia had ignited the war between the two countries, contradicted the United States's step on Monday.
Ukraine had put forward a resolution to evoke the aggression of Russia and demanded an immediate withdrawal of Russian troops.
The United States, however, came to Russia when voting against the resolution that made it clear that Russia was the aggressor in the conflict.
The general meeting voted 93-18 with 65 abstentions to approve the Ukrainian resolution.
The result showed some reduced support for Ukraine, because votes from the previous meeting condemn more than 140 countries the aggression of Russia and require an immediate withdrawal.
The meeting then turned to the resolution drawn up by the US, which 'recognizes the tragic loss of life in the Russia-Ukraine conflict' and 'begs a quick end of the conflict and further drings on a lasting peace between Ukraine and Russia, but never the aggression of Moskou.

In a dramatic shift in transatlantic relations under President Donald Trump, the United States splits with his European allies by refusing to blame Russia for his invasion of Ukraine
In a surprising step, France suggested three amendments, which added that the conflict was the result of a 'full invasion of Ukraine by the Russian Federation'.
The amendments confirm the dedication of the meeting to the sovereignty, independence, unity and territorial integrity of Ukraine and calls for peace that respects the UN charter.
Russia proposed an amendment to call to be tackled 'main causes' of the conflict. All changes were approved and the resolution was adopted 93-8 with 73 abstentions, with Ukraine 'yes' voting, the American remember and Russia 'no' voting.
Both resolutions of the meeting were supported by American allies in Asia, including Japan, South Korea, Australia and New Zealand, the neighbors Canada and Mexico and European countries, with the exception of Hungary.
The UN mood caused any existing tension during the meeting of yesterday in the Oval Office.
Zensky followed Vance's remark about diplomacy by pointing out that Putin's attack on Ukraine had started in 2014, where 'no one stopped him' and 'he just occupied and took it. He killed people. '
Trump intervened and made the point that he was not in the presidency at the time, which Zensky acknowledged: “That's right.”
'Yes, but in 2014 [until] 2022, the situation is the same that people have died on the contact line. Nobody stopped him. You know that we had conversations with him, many conversations, my bilateral conversation, Zelensky continued.

“And we signed with him, I, like, you, president, in 2019. I signed the deal with him. I signed with him [French President Emmanuel] Macron and [former German Chancellor Angela] Merkel, “he said, referring to the ceasefared –
“They all told me that he would never go, but then he broke it -the fire, he killed our people and he did not exchange prisoners. We have signed the exchange of prisoners. But he didn't do it. What kind of diplomacy, JD, are you talking about? What do you mean?' Zensky stings further.
Vance responded vaguely with 'the kind of diplomacy that will end the destruction of your country', before he was in Zensky for showing 'lack of respect … for the American media'.
It is not yet clear how the dramatic argument will influence the future of Ukraine during the war.
