Brian Glenn, the chief White House correspondent of conservative outlet Real America’s Voice, praised Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky’s military-style suit during Monday’s Oval Office sitdown with President Trump.
“President Zelensky, you look fabulous in that suit,” Glenn — who is dating Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) — told the Ukrainian, 47, during a gaggle with reporters. “You look good.”
President Trump chimed in, joking that he said “the same thing” to Zelensky and recounted how Glenn had browbeat the Ukrainian leader over his attire during the last White House meeting between the two leaders on Feb. 28.
“I apologize to you. You look wonderful,” Glenn said.
A smiling Zelensky pointed to Glenn’s suit and joked in response, “It’s the same suit.”
“You see, I have changed; you have not.”
The Oval Office erupted in laughter from officials, including Trump and the White House pool reporters.
Traditionally, Zelensky has donned a variation of a military-style sweatshirt, adorned with a black or green Ukrainian trident.
The Ukrainian leader has worn that as a symbol of the fact that his country is fighting for its freedom against a bloody Russian invasion.

But during Zelensky’s meeting with Trump on Feb. 28, it emerged as a sticking point. Trump had thrown shade at him at the time, saying, “You’re all dressed up today.”
Then, during a chaotic gaggle with reporters and banter with Trump and Vice President JD Vance in front of TV cameras in the Oval Office, Glenn dredged up Zelensky’s attire.
“Why don’t you wear a suit?” Glenn scolded at the time. “You’re at the highest level in this country’s office, and you refuse to wear a suit.
“Do you own a suit?” he went on. “A lot of Americans have problems with you not respecting the dignity of this office.”
Zelensky defended himself, saying “I will wear costume after this war will finish.” In Ukrainian, the word for suit sounds similar to the English word “costume.”
Glenn has emerged as one of Trump’s favorite reporters in the White House press corps due to his friendly questions.
Cognizant of how his attire generated controversy last time, Zelensky’s designers created a military-style suit for him to wear for his meeting with Trump.
That suit looks more snappy than his prior outfit, but also retains the symbolism of the war.
Zelensky has worn the military-style suit for other occasions, such as his trip to Pope Francis’ funeral in April, when he met Trump on the sidelines of the solemn Mass.
