Fact check: Claims of Zelenskyy buying $20M Florida villa and seeking U.S. citizenship found to be fabricated
- Social media users claimed Zelenskyy bought a $20 million villa in Florida and was seeking U.S. citizenship
- The villa photos are actually of a different $11 million home still listed for sale in Florida
- Public records show the home was purchased in 2019 by a couple from Atlanta, not Zelenskyy
- The supposed naturalization document is a fake template from Reddit with Zelenskyy's photo from the Ukrainian government website
- The disinformation seems to originate from a pro-Russian website and author with no other published work or verifiable identity
