US President Donald Trump said on Tuesday that he thinks his Russian counterpart, Vladimir Putin, wants to stop the war in Ukraine, despite recent attacks against the beleaguered nation.
Trump stated this in an interview with ABC News on Tuesday.
When asked whether he thinks Putin wants to make peace, Trump responded, “I think he does.”
“If it weren’t for me, I think he’d want to take over the whole country. I will tell you, I was not happy when I saw Putin shooting missiles into a few towns and cities,” Trump said.
DAILY POST reports that Trump had expressed frustration with Russia after it launched deadly strikes on the Ukrainian capital of Kyiv.
“I am not happy with the Russian strikes on KYIV. Not necessary, and very bad timing. Vladimir, STOP! 5000 soldiers a week are dying. Let’s get the Peace Deal DONE!” Trump wrote on Truth Social.
