Ukraine war: Trump blames Selenskyj and bids for war

US President Donald Trump has accused his predecessor Joe Biden and Ukrainian President Wolodymyr Selenskyj that he did not prevent the war in Ukraine. “President Selenskyj and the corrupt Joe Biden did an absolutely terrible job when they allowed that this farce began,” Trump wrote on his Truth Social platform. There would have been so many ways to prevent the war outbreak, he continued to write – without explaining how the invasion ordered by Kremlin chief Vladimir Putin could have been stopped in the neighboring country in February 2022.

The war between Russia and Ukraine is bidens, not his, said the US President. He has recently been in office and had no problem preventing him during his previous term because Russian President Vladimir Putin respected him. In capital letters he repeated: “I had nothing to do with the war, but I work tirelessly to stop death and destruction.”

Trump pushes for an end of the war and holds a tight wire to the Kremlin via his special envoy Steve Witkoff. Trump’s government imagines a “deal” for an end of the war in several places as it is in the sense of Moscow: Ukraine should give up its striving for NATO accession and US soldiers should not be part of a possible peace force. Selenskyj recently said that, according to his impression, the Russian view of the war in the US government has prevailed.
