Donald Trump again displayed his frustration on his Ukrainian counterpart, Volodymyr Zelensky on Monday, while the American president says he wants to end the conflict with Russia.
“He always seeks to get missiles. Listen, when you start a war, you should know that you can win. You are not starting a war against someone 20 times bigger than you and then hope that people give you missiles, “said Donald Trump in the Oval office by receiving the president of Salvador, Nayib Bukele.
He answered a question of a journalist on the will of the Ukrainian president to have more missiles.
This is not the first time that Donald Trump has brought the war with Russia to VolodyMyr Zelensky, despite the fact that Russia invaded Ukraine in February 2022.
He then resumed by quoting the responsibilities of Russian president, Vladimir Putin, and the former Democratic president, Joe Biden.
“You have millions of people who died because of three people. Let’s say Putin first. But also Biden, who had no idea what he was doing, second, and Zelensky, “he said, repeating the idea that this war should never have happened.
“All I can do is try to end it. I want to end the killing and, I think, that we are progressing well in this regard, “said Trump, stressing that he expected” good proposals very soon “.
Donald Trump described the bombing on Sunday, the bombing which, according to local authorities, killed at least 35 people and was 117 injured in Soumy, in northeast Ukraine, but without directly incriminating Russia.
The anger of the American president vis-à-vis his Ukrainian counterpart had exploded in broad daylight during a stormy meeting between the two leaders at the White House in February.
Donald Trump advocates the end of this conflict as soon as possible since his arrival at the White House in January.
Its administration has organized separate talks for several weeks with senior Russian and Ukrainian officials.
Donald Trump’s emissary Steve Witkoff met the Russian president in Saint-Petersburg on Friday since the third time since February.
However, these discussions have not resulted, for the time being, of a cessation of hostilities.
