As US President Donald Trump and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy prepared for a high-stakes diplomatic encounter at Mar-a-Lago to end the latter's conflict with Russia, the Kremlin chose to deliver its opening gambit through a digital lens that's both hilarious and alarming. A surreal, AI-generated video has surfaced, casting Vladimir Putin as a global arbiter of 'naughty and nice' lists, seemingly making fun of Trump's efforts to be a peacemaker.
The footage serves as a stark reminder of the psychological warfare defining modern geopolitics, where festive imagery is weaponised to signal military intent. While diplomatic channels remained open, this digital provocation set a chilling tone about Russia's stance on Trump's peace summit.
