People are comparing the differences between how President Donald Trump was greeted at Pope Francis’ funeral, compared to President Volodymyr Zelenskyy.<\/strong><\/p>\n On Saturday (April 26), world leaders from across the globe gathered to pay their respects at the service in\u00a0Rome<\/a>, including\u00a0Trump<\/a>,\u00a0Zelenskyy<\/a>, President of France, Emmanuel Macron and Prime Minister of the\u00a0UK<\/a>, Keir Starmer.<\/p>\n Trump arrived alongside wife and First Lady,\u00a0Melania<\/a>, joining the likes of Starmer, Zelenskyy and also Prince William for the proceedings.<\/p>\n But people are pointing out the obvious differences between how the leaders were greeted, with one huge variation in particular.<\/p>\n In videos shared on\u00a0X<\/a>, Zelesnkyy was greeted with a chorus of applause from crowds, meanwhile Trump didn’t appear to receive such a welcome.<\/p>\n “While Zelensky was greeted with a spontaneous round of applause, Trump, in his blue suit at Pope Francis’s funeral, received nothing,” the video was captioned.<\/p>\n And people were quick to discuss in the comments, with one person writing: “That’s a lot of applause honoring #Zelenskyy – it isn’t a mere handful.”<\/p>\n While another added: “What a lovely and honest thing to see, amidst all the heartache and shouting, that Europe values \u200b\u200bthis man. Zelenskyy, a true leader.”<\/p>\n People\u00a0took issue with Trump<\/a>\u00a0choosing to wear blue instead of black, with many calling it ‘disrespectful’.<\/p>\n While Zelensky was greeted with a spontaneous round of applause, Trump, in his blue suit at Pope Francis’s funeral, received nothing. pic.twitter.com\/sd9PmONuni<\/a><\/p>\n \u2014 \ud835\udc00\ud835\udc27\ud835\udc27\ud835\udc1a \ud835\udc0a\ud835\udc0e\ud835\udc0c\ud835\udc12\ud835\udc00 | \ud83c\uddea\ud83c\uddfa\ud83c\uddeb\ud83c\uddf7\ud83c\uddf5\ud83c\uddf1\ud83c\uddfa\ud83c\udde6 (@tweet4Anna_NAFO) April 26, 2025<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n
