Russian pranksters fool Fed Chair Jerome Powell into fake call with "Zelenskyy"

Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell spoke with two Russian pranksters who falsely claimed to be President Volodymyr Zelenskyy of Ukraine. The video appears to have been edited, and no sensitive or confidential information was discussed. The incident raises serious questions about security procedures at the central bank's Washington headquarters. The pranksters have played similar hoaxes on dozens of government officials and public figures around the world, often with the apparent goal of embarrassing people who criticize the Kremlin.
