Former U.S. President Donald Trump unleashed fiery criticism against both Russian President Vladimir Putin and Ukrainian leader Volodymyr Zelenskyy this weekend, calling Putin’s actions “CRAZY” while accusing Zelenskyy of worsening tensions through his rhetoric.
Trump vs. Putin: A Surprising Shift? 🤯
In a candid interview before boarding Air Force One, Trump expressed frustration with his once-friendly relationship with Putin. “I’ve known him a long time… but he’s sending rockets into cities and killing people,” Trump said, referencing Russia’s recent missile strikes on Kyiv and other Ukrainian cities. Hours later, he doubled down on Truth Social, declaring Putin had “gone absolutely CRAZY!”
Zelenskyy in the Crosshairs 🔥
Trump also took aim at Zelenskyy, claiming the Ukrainian leader’s public criticism of U.S. silence on Russian attacks was counterproductive. “Everything out of his mouth causes problems,” Trump warned, distancing himself from the conflict by calling it “Zelenskyy’s, Putin’s, and Biden’s War.”
Rising Stakes as Attacks Intensify 💣
The verbal sparring follows Sunday’s deadly exchanges: Russia reported intercepting 110 Ukrainian drones, while Ukraine confirmed at least 12 civilian deaths from Russian strikes. With no immediate responses from Moscow or Kyiv, Trump floated potential new sanctions against Russia but emphasized his push for negotiations to end the three-year war.
As global leaders scramble for solutions, Trump’s blunt remarks add fuel to an already volatile crisis. Will his words shift the battlefield—or just the headlines? 🌐⚡
