I cannot explain it, but I found the joint appearance disturbing [View all]

He is sitting at his desk - OK, we know that he cannot stand for long time - but his guest is standing next to him almost in a subservient position.

Why couldn’t both of them sit, perhaps at a different room the way it was with the Saudi, or even when they ganged on Zelenskyy? I think that he had other visitors - I cannot recall now - where both were side by side answering questions. Or is that “honor” reserved only to heads of states not to a “mere” mayor?

Again, I just found it incongruent, cannot explain..
