He specifically mentioned canceling the Romanian elections by court!! And much more!! J.D.Vance assured the listeners, the European elites, that the US will stand against their anti-democratic policies!!!

Zelenskiy’s meeting with Vance has started, Ukrainian leader’s press secretary says

Before going into the talks with U.S. Vice President JD Vance, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy responded to talk of Ukrainian-Russian meetings by saying that the only Russian official he would be prepared to talk to is President Vladimir Putin.
Zelenskiy also said that he would only meet with Putin once Ukraine had agreed on a common plan with President Donald Trump and European leaders.
“I will meet with only one Russian guy, with Putin, only after we will have common plan with Trump, Europe. And we will sit with Putin and stop the war. Only in this case I am ready to meet,” Zelenskiy said.
Kremlin demands clarity on Vance interview
11:08 EST
The Kremlin said on Friday it hoped the U.S. would clarify remarks by Vice President JD Vance that Washington had military levers to press Russia to agree a good peace deal with Ukraine.
Vance said in an interview with the Wall Street Journal ahead of the Munich Security Conference that the U.S. had tools to encourage Russia to reach a settlement to end the war.
Vance said the option of sending U.S. troops to Ukraine if Moscow failed to negotiate in good faith remained “on the table,” the Wall Street Journal reported.
Vance said later the Wall Street Journal had “twisted” his words, citing a transcript of the interview.
It was a great speech. Freedom of speech and freedom of thought!
