Trump: “Putin has gone completely crazy – I don’t like it one bit”
Donald Trump says he is not happy that Vladimir Putin has attacked several Ukrainian cities in recent days, including the capital Kyiv, several media outlets report.
– I don’t know what on earth has happened to Putin, he says.
He adds that he has known the Russian president for a long time and that they have always gotten along.
– But now he is sending rockets into cities and killing people. I don’t like what Putin is doing. Not one bit. He is killing people. Something has happened to this guy, and I don’t like it, he says.
Asked if he is considering more sanctions against Russia in response to the recent attacks, Trump replies: “Absolutely.” In a post on Truth Social later that night, Trump adds that Putin has gone “completely crazy.”
Earlier on Sunday, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said that the US silence about the attacks is encouraging Russia to continue. Russia has carried out massive drone and missile attacks targeting mainly Kyiv over the weekend.
Kremlin calls Trump's anger emotional overload
Donald Trump's claim that Vladimir Putin has "gone completely crazy" may be due to emotional overload. This is what Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said, according to Reuters. At the same time, the Russian administration thanked the US president for his help in starting peace negotiations with Ukraine.
- Of course, this is a very crucial moment, which is of course associated with an emotional overload for everyone and with emotional reactions, Peskov said at a press conference.
He also said that Vladimir Putin is taking the necessary measures to "ensure the security of our country", writes AP.
Trump's statement that "something happened to Putin" came last night, after extensive Russian attacks on several Ukrainian cities in recent days.
