Kremlin: Trump talks a lot – is poorly informed
The tone continues to harden between Donald Trump and the Kremlin, reports CNN.
Putin’s top adviser Yuri Ushakov tells the state television channel Rossiya-1 that Trump “talks a lot”, and that Russia is closely following all statements.
“But in many ways we have concluded that Trump is not sufficiently informed about what is really happening in the Russian-Ukrainian conflict,” he continues, trying to paint the Ukrainians as terrorists.
The statement comes after Trump's post on Truth Social on Tuesday, where he wrote that Putin is "playing with fire" and that many "really bad things" would have happened to Russia if it weren't for him.
Trump on sanctions: Doesn't want to sabotage negotiations
Donald Trump is avoiding imposing new sanctions on Russia because he doesn't want to "spoil" the peace negotiations. He tells reporters at the White House, according to Sky News.
The statement comes after the president has been making harsh statements against the Kremlin for several days and opening up for new sanctions - something eight out of ten senators in Congress are behind.
Trump also says that he "doesn't know" whether Putin wants peace or not, but that he expects to find out in the next few weeks.
- We will find out whether he is straightforward and honest with us or not, and if he is not, our response will be a little different, says the president.
