US President Donald Trump published an extensive statement on his social network Truth Social, in which he criticized the war in Ukraine and expressed condolences to the deceased.
"The War between Russia and Ukraine is a violent and terrible one that, with strong and proper U.S. and Ukrainian LEADERSHIP, would have NEVER HAPPENED," wrote the American leader.
Trump stated that millions of people have "neddlessly died" in this war.
He criticized the leadership of Ukraine for ingratitude to the United States, and put the word "leadership" in inverted commas.
Concluding his message, the American President wrote: "GOD BLESS ALL THE LIVES THAT HAVE BEEN LOST IN THE HUMAN CATASTROPHE!"
Earlier, the UOJ wrote that, according to Trump, the USA intends to protect Christians around the world.
