Canadian lawmaker Charlie Angus delivered a blunt message to Donald Trump last week after the U.S. president series of attacks aimed at Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy.
Angus — a member of the left-leaning New Democratic Party who serves in the Canadian Parliament — reacted to Trump calling Zelenskyy a “dictator,” an attack that’s stunned European allies and led to pushback from some Republicans as the U.S. looks to negotiate talks to end Russia’s war in Ukraine.
“To attack a leader like Zelenskyy, who has more moral fiber in his little toe than Donald Trump has in his entire body and his entire cabinet, is outrageous,” said Angus in an interview with Ben Meiselas of the MeidasTouch Network.
“Volodymyr Zelenskyy has shown the world what democracy means, Donald Trump is a convicted felon and a sexual pervert. Those two men shouldn’t even be mentioned in the same sentence.”
Angus, who slammed Trump’s love for “gangster” Russian President Vladimir Putin, later referred to what an unnamed Eastern European colleague told him in response to Trump calling for a regime change in Ukraine.
“She said to me, ‘The Ukrainian people survived the Holodomor. The Ukrainian people survived Stalin. The Ukrainian people survived Chernobyl. They’ve survived Putin. Do you think that Donald Trump is going to break the Ukranian people?’” recalled Angus.
“So Donald, just put a sock in it for now.”
He continued by warning that Trump is going to do “enormous damage to democracy,” impacting both U.S. allies and the rest of the world as he tries to help his “criminal buddy” Putin.

“And the world will be forced, now, to treat America the way we treat Putin and we are going to all have to pick up our game dramatically to defend democracy whether it’s in Ukraine or whether it’s in our own countries,” said Angus, who has previously knocked Trump over his tariff threats.
