Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky addressed the United Nations General Assembly on Tuesday, and it has resulted in a number of controversies

The most notable controversy is whether the video of the speech was edited when broadcast in Ukraine. Still images from have been presented on social media that suggest Ukrainian media edited the footage to make it appear that the audience was far larger than it was.

In fact, Zelensky is purported to be seen in the audience where he had been during the remarks made by President Joe Biden earlier in the day.

It doesn't seem there's any "purported" about it when watching the video; there his is on stage and there he is in the audience.

Responses have ranged from it being deceitful to have manipulated the video feed for propaganda purposes, through defenders claiming it wasn't manipulated and it's just Russian false flag to suggest it was, to apologists wanting to know why Ukraine should be held to account for faking things when Russia isn't.
