Volodymyr Zelensky has wished Donald Trump a “speedy recovery” after the former US president was shot in the ear in an assassination attempt on Saturday, 13 July, at a rally in Pennsylvania.
The Ukrainian president described the incident as a “heinous crime” and said it showed “how serious the global challenges to democracy are right now.”
A person in the crowd was killed and two others were injured as Mr Trump was on stage in Butler.
The FBI has identified 20-year-old Thomas Matthew Crooks as the “subject involved” in the shooting.
