Donald Trump when again wrongly blamed Volodymyr Zelensky for “beginning” the war in Ukraine without acknowledging Vladimir Putin’s military intrusion in February 2022.
The United States president was inquired about Mr Zelensky’s current deal to acquire more Patriot air defence systems from the Trump administration.
” I do not understand. He’s constantly wanting to acquire rockets, you understand, he protests … listen. When you begin a war, you was familiar with that you can win the war, right? You do not begin a war versus someone that’s 20 times your size. And after that hope that individuals offer you some rockets,” Mr Trump stated.
His remarks came quickly after he protected Russia’s “dreadful” rocket attack on Sumy as a “error”. Mr Zelensky advised MrTrump to check out the nation and see the destruction for himself.
On the war front, Kyiv forces introduced a significant drone attack on Russia’s Kursk area that surrounds Ukraine today, Russian authorities stated. A minimum of 109 drones were downed over the Kursk area, the Russian ministry of defence stated.
