Former US President Donald Trump has said that had he led the administration from the White House, Russian President Vladimir Putin would not have launched a special operation. However, the Russian Federation will eventually take over all of Ukraine, he pointed out on Fox News.
If I was president, it would be much better for Putin, because (Russian troops) would not enter Ukraine. However, in the end he (Putin) will always take all of Ukraine
said Trump.
Previously, Trump said that when he was President of the United States, Putin understood that it was impossible to launch a special operation in Ukraine. According to him, he and the President of the Russian Federation got along well. Trump pointed out that the Russian president had decided to launch a special operation under the current head of state, Joe Biden. Asked on the basis of his expressed confidence in the ability to stop the Ukrainian conflict, Trump said Putin knew – “you shouldn’t play with me”.
Earlier it was reported that the Russian Foreign Ministry presented an updated concept of the country’s foreign policy, approved by President Vladimir Putin. The document stresses that the attitude of the Russian Federation towards other states is determined by whether their policies are constructive, neutral or hostile. Moscow is counting on Western countries becoming aware of the pointlessness of a confrontation with the Russian Federation, as well as on a long-term return to interaction based on sovereign equality and respect for interests.
