Asked how to deal with Donald Trump, Ihor Kolomoisky first makes the question personal: he says he already lacks a U.S. visa and has no need for one at present.

The Ukrainian businessman is seated in a courtroom in footage published by Ukraine's Television News Service (TSN). An off-camera questioner asks what should be done about the U.S. president. Kolomoisky replies that Americans should handle Trump themselves.

When the questioner suggests trying to appease him, Kolomoisky rejects the premise. In his view, American political figures think in different terms, and Trump is on his own side rather than anyone else's.

His argument then turns to Ukraine's bargaining position. Kolomoisky says Ukraine cannot give anything and only receives, while Trump is looking for something to gain himself. These are the businessman's assessments, not an announcement about negotiations or U.S. policy.

The brief exchange drew about 263,000 views since yesterday. It ends with Kolomoisky's contention that personal interest is the key to understanding Trump's approach.
