Trump's U-turn on Ukraine
Former US President, Donald Trump, blamed Ukrainian leader, Volodymyr Zelensky, for Russia’s invasion of the Ukraine.
In comments to a conservative podcast, the Republican presidential candidate reversed historical facts in order to avoid holding Vladimir Putin responsible for the attack on his neighbor (the largest military operation in Europe since World War II), which he ordered in February 2022.
“I think Zelensky is one of the best salesmen I’ve ever seen,” he said. “Every time he comes in, we give him $100 billion. Who else has gotten that much money in history? There never has been.”
“That doesn’t mean I don’t want to help him, because I feel terrible for those people. But he should never have let this war start. This war is a failure.”
