Biden in a blue and yellow tie and Zelensky in khaki: what the images of the US and Ukrainian presidents symbolized
During his visit to the United States, President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky did not change the military style he has been adhering to since February 24. US President Joe Biden, for his part, assured his support for Ukraine not only in words but also in image.
The politicians' outfits carried a deeper meaning than it might seem at first glance. Photos of the leaders were posted on the website of the Office of the President of Ukraine (scroll to the bottom of the page to see the photos).
The President of Ukraine chose to wear a patriotic khaki sweatshirt by a Ukrainian brand with an embroidered trident for the official meeting. This was the first time he met with the US leader at a high level without wearing a business suit, which means that Volodymyr Zelensky made a powerful political statement.

Such a choice of clothes may indicate that the leader of Ukraine is not fooled by the calmness of foreign visits, but reminds everyone around him that Ukrainians are fighting the Russian occupiers every minute.
