President Trump, speaking on Tuesday afternoon from his home in Florida, has shifted three years – if not many decades – from the US foreign policy almost 180 degrees, issuing statements that made him administration more to align with Russian President Vladimir Putin than European allies in America than European allies in America for the last eight decades.
In a rhetoric similar to a claim Putin used yourself to justify his three -year War with UkraineMr. Trump seemed to accuse President of the Balladimir Zelensky in the full-scale invasion of Russia after the Ukrainian leader questioned if he was left as a result of the initial conversations between the White House and Moscow, which, which, which started on Tuesday in Saudi Arabia.
“I think I have the power to stop this war and I think it goes very well. Today I heard,” Oh, we haven't been invited. “Well, you were there three years.” You Could have Made A Deal. I could have made a deal for ukraine that will have given them almost all of the land. Everything, almost all of the land. And no people will have been the Killed and No City Would have been demolished, and no dome would be beaten.

Zelensky responded on Wednesday, saying that Mr. Trump acted in the “space of misinformation” that contributed to Russia.
Putin, who first sent forces to Ukraine in 2014 and seized control of the Crime Peninsula in a one-sided annexation, never recognized by the United States or most of the world, claimed that he was forced to start his full-scale attack on the neighboring nation because of the fact that for what was due that because of the fact that he was forced to start his full-scale attack on the neighboring nation because of what for what is behind The fact that he is forced to launch his full -scale attack on the neighboring nation for what is because of the fact that the threat represented by the NATO alliance, which under the leadership of the United States extended its influence on the east to the Russian border.
The United States and its European Allies NATO have always rejected this excuse, insisting that Putin's true intention was always seized more sovereign territory of Ukraine and delegitimized the pro -Western Zelenski.
“NATO consists of 32 countries, and this NATO position that it (war in Ukraine) was not called,” Stewart B. Munch said on Wednesday. The US Commander-in-Chief of the longest official duties in the US Navy is in Romania for NATO military exercises aimed at preparing an alliance for further Russian aggression on the far eastern flank in Europe.
Mr. Trump made a fiery rhetoric, and sometimes a free commitment to the fact, a distinctive feature of negotiation tactics with foreign states, including a groundless claim with his marsh-laga mansion on Tuesday, that the Zelensky's approval rating decreased to 4%when An internal poll in Ukraine shows this more than 50%. This is a propaganda of the Kremlin, as well as a call to Ukraine to hold new elections, and the proposal it was to be made already, despite the fact that the country's constitution made the vote impossible in the current state of emergencies caused by Russia's invasion.

Zelenskyy has a position in the corresponding months, seemingly accepting that he may have to cede some of his Country's Russian -Cupied Territory in An Eventual Peace Deal, But He's Made Clear Must be involved in the negotations for a ceasefire again, and that its country will need security guarantees from the United States and the West to protect it from the future Russian attack.
“We see a lot of misinformation, and this is happening from Russia,” Zelensky said on Wednesday. “Unfortunately, President Trump, with all respect … lives in this space misinformation.”

Kealo called his visit “a chance to hold good, significant negotiations”, but what Ukraine will want is a clear sign that the largest military power in the world will somehow protect it from future Russian aggression. Zelensky has long said he could come in the form of either NATO membership for her country or for NATO forces to cease fire.
After US Secretary of State Mark Rubio headed the bilateral negotiations of the White House delegation with Lavrov in Saudi Arabia on Tuesday, the Russian Foreign Minister said the Kremlin would not accept any of these things.
