Former President Donald Trump, in his first sit-down interview since returning to the White House, called for an end to the Russia-Ukraine war, placing blame on both current President Joe Biden and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy. Trump stated that an estimated 850,000 Russian and 700,000 Ukrainian soldiers have died since the war began in 2022. He also criticized Biden's energy policies, claiming they enriched Putin, and suggested Zelenskyy could have prevented the conflict. Trump threatened further economic pressure on Russia if Putin doesn't make a deal, while stating Zelenskyy has expressed willingness to negotiate.
President Donald Trump called for an end to the Russia-Ukraine war as part of his first sit-down interview since returning to the White House, saying Russian President Vladimir Putin should never have launched his full-scale invasion in 2022. Trump told Fox News host Sean Hannity an estimated 850,000 Russian soldiers and 700,000 Ukrainian soldiers have died since the onset of the war. 'These are human beings that are just being slaughtered on this battlefield by the millions.
He told reporters at the White House on Thursday that Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has already told him he’s ready to negotiate an end to the war. 'He's had enough,' Trump told Hannity. 'He shouldn't have allowed this to happen either. You know, if he's no angel, he shouldn't have allowed this war to happen. First of all, he's fighting a much bigger entity, OK? Much bigger.
Trump’s special envoy for Ukraine and Russia, Ret. Lt. Gen. Keith Kellogg, told 'America Reports' earlier this month that he’d like to see the war come to an end within 100 days of Trump taking office.
