Those Ukrainians who are accustomed to ironically and not lose the presence of the spirit in any situation have already called the situation with the inappropriate “joke” of the President of the United States over our president’s clothing for the term “explain for Shmot”. And if eight years ago the phrase went to the people from football fan -parties, becoming a trigger for clarifying relations with competitors, today the requirement for the president of the country who is at war, to “explain for SHMot” collapsed the already low world rock of respect for the newly elected American Chapter.

However, not only the President of Ukraine entered the official fire without a tie and a coat. Different leaders of the countries do not think of pulling a jacket to a meeting in the White House – and President Trump did not bother it. Briefly about – About who goes to visit the President of the United States is simple.

“My clothes are my brand” Going forward, it should be noted that the black light of Vladimir Zelensky did not embarrass the next day even the King of Britain Charles III, and in the United Kingdom they are known on clothing for ceremonies.

If Trump remembered that he spoke a day ago or at least met his guests, he would have seen an interview with CNN from 2022, in which the President of Ukraine said: “I do not want to waste time on ties as long as the war.” In the same year, in the Air Force comments, he stated: “My clothes are a reflection of wartime.”

The Russians do not stubbornly remember what they were again adored by leader Joseph Stalin and during the war, and after it – Kelita and Galif, no hint of jacket and tie. And someone would try to ask the question, they say, and what, other was not found?

I would try to ask this issue, such as India Prime Minister Narendre Modi, who comes to all official visits in a traditional Indian jacket and jacket. In 2019, Modi spoke to NDTV: “My clothes are my brand”, and before that he explained that he wears traditional clothes to show out an Indian culture around the world and not to associate his appearance with colonization “jackets and tie”. The African leader Nelson Mandela wore Madiba’s mottled shirt and did not stop being worse, but only emphasized the connection with his people. Emir Kuwait Sheikh Sabah al-Ahamad al-Jaber As-Saba-in the headdress and traditional Dyshdasha, comes to the Oval Cabinet in Trump. He also enters the White House and the Crown Printz Saudi Arabia. They heard no horseshoes and jokes about their “shmot” from the merry.

It is hardly necessary to draw a parallel between Arab/African countries and Ukraine, some comparisons for national identity will be inappropriate. Just the White House Strangely decides who to punish for a T-shirt, and to whom to apologize to the robe to the floor.

It was normal Actually, there are no official documents that regulate, what the white house visits should be dressed. The highest -level score rules are governed by the US diplomatic protocol, which adapts to a particular president and the context of a visit. And this protocol is expected that the official will be at least in shorts and in the flip flops, but if it is a national costume of his country, then please.

For state visits and meetings in the oval office, formal outfits, such as business suits for men (dark jacket, tie, pants) and equivalent official women’s clothing (suits, dresses or skirts with jackets), are traditionally expected.

By the way, during his first presidency, Trump preferred men to wear tie, and women “looked like women”, which was interpreted as a tendency to classical style. However, this was more about his employees rather than foreign leaders.

Donald Trump was not interested in his visa. Unlike his predecessor George Bush Jr., who demanded that everyone wear jackets in the oval office even on a weekend. Against his background, Donald Trump seemed like a liberal one who does not seek in the clothes of hidden meanings.

The White House dress code is intended to adapt to the cultural characteristics of the guests and the type of event. Although there are rules: respect for the national image is governed by the 1961 Vienna Convention and the UN customs. This allows the leaders to wear their clothes without breaking etiquette. And the Black Svolinsky was just expected to match the image of his country, which leads an unequal battle with the invader, losing his citizens daily.

However, he was a cause for jokes that could not be alert, but we believed …

Instead, the US President did not say to his right hand Ilon Mask, who came to a working meeting with a patron in a T -shirt, jacket and capes. Baby-son also brought, who quickly “cultivated” the table of the US president with the contents of his nose.

Where are the jokes about this? The table was replaced and forgotten.
