Trump blames Zelenskyy

Donald Trump claims that Volodymyr Zelenskyy and Joe Biden are responsible for the war that broke out between Ukraine and Russia in February 2022.

After two years of conflict with little change on the front lines, the Republican candidate for the U.S. presidential election remains convinced that the Ukrainian leader is at fault, despite maintaining a good relationship with him.

“I think Zelensky is one of the best salesmen I’ve ever seen,” Trump said on Patrick Bet-David’s podcast. “And that doesn’t mean I don’t want to help them, because I feel very bad for those people. But he should have never let this war start,” he added.

The 78-year-old billionaire argued that the issue should have been resolved long before Russia’s invasion of Ukraine took place.

“This should’ve been settled before it started. It would’ve been so easy. If we had a president with half a brain, it would’ve been easy to settle,” he said.

The former president also believes that Joe Biden is the “instigator” of the conflict and has done nothing to end it.
