'The world is behaving irrationally' - Putin's warm welcome gets cold reaction in Ukraine

The news article discusses the reactions to Russian President Vladimir Putin's visit to Alaska, where he was warmly welcomed by former U.S. President Donald Trump. However, the article notes that this warm reception contrasts with the cold reaction from Ukraine, where there is an ongoing conflict with Russia. The article highlights that despite the lack of a formal agreement, Ukrainians were primarily concerned with the perceived optics of the meeting between Putin and Trump. The article suggests that this reflects the global tensions and the "irrational" behavior of the world, as described by Putin himself. The article does not provide further details about the specific reasons for the Ukrainian reaction or the context of the ongoing conflict between Ukraine and Russia. It focuses on the contrast between the warm welcome in Alaska and the cold reaction in Ukraine, underscoring the complexity of the geopolitical situation.
