US President Donald Trump had the opportunity to experience stronger sanctions against Moscow on Saturday and asked whether Russian President Vladimir Putin wants to “stop” the war against Ukraine.
Trump's social media post about Putin came shortly after he and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy in Rome met for their first personal session since a sitdown oval office, which developed into a shouting match. They met shortly before the funeral of Pope Francis.
“There was no reason for Putin to shoot rockets in civilian areas, cities and cities in the past few days,” Trump wrote about the social truth. Vice President JD Vance published Trump's statement in his X account.
“I think he may not want to stop the war, he only takes me with him and must have died differently through” banking “or” secondary sanctions? “Too many people die !!!” Said Trump.
The White House said that Trump and Zelenskyy “had a very productive discussion”, but did not contain any additional details of what was discussed.
Zelensky said it was a “good meeting” and added: “Very symbolic meeting that has the potential to become historical when we achieve common results.”
Trump's statements come because he increases the pressure on the two countries to conclude a peace agreement. At the beginning of this week, Trump presented the two countries to end the war. According to reports, the deal reported on the recognition of the Crimea under Russian control, which Zelenskyy said repeatedly was a red line.
In his social post in his truth on Saturday, Trump said that Russia stole the crime from Ukraine, a rare recognition of the US president that Russia illegally annexed the region.
Trump aimed at the former US president Barack Obama and suggested that he made it possible to steal the Crimea from Ukraine without firing a shot. “
Trump said at the beginning of this month that “the Crimea will stay at Russia” and added: “Zelenskyy understands that, and everyone understands that it has been with them for a long time. It has been with them for a long time until Trump came along.”
After his comments, Zelenskyy confirmed that the Crimea belonged to Ukraine.
In the meantime, Trump said on Friday that Russia and Ukraine “are very close to a deal, and the two sides should now meet at very high levels to end it.”
He wrote about the truth that “most important points are agreed”.
