Summary

Donald Trump defended Russia’s massive missile and drone attack on Ukraine that followed his administration’s halt to intelligence sharing and military aid to Kyiv, saying Putin was “doing what anybody would do.”

Trump told reporters he finds it “easier” to work with Russia than Ukraine, claiming Putin “wants to end the war.”

While threatening vague sanctions against Russia on social media, Trump’s actual actions have targeted Ukraine, including cutting off military supplies and disabling Ukraine’s access to satellite imagery.

Ukrainian forces have reportedly suffered battlefield setbacks as a direct result of these U.S. policy changes.

      No. Some would not invade and destroy a country and say “I want to end this war” while not honoring 24 ceasefires in a row continuing to bombard civilian targets.
