Trump says that lacking in patience with Putin while Ukraine speaks on break

President Donald Trump said on Friday that he “lacked patience with Russian President Vladimir Putin” quickly “after the Kremlin said negotiations with Ukraine were” on break “.

In an interview on “Fox and Friends”, Trump said that when he came into office, he thought that the end of the three-year-old Russian-Ukraine war was going to be the simplest international conflict to face.

“But it takes two in Tango,” said Trump after the host Brian Kilmeade stressed that Ukrainian President Volodymy Zelenskyy proposed to meet Putin on several occasions. “It’s incredible when Putin wants to do it, Zelenskyy didn’t do it. When Zelenskyy wanted to do it, Putin did not do it. Now, Zelenskyy wants and Putin is the question mark.”

We do not know at what period Trump calls Putin, for the first time earlier this month, invited Zelenskyy to meet him if the Ukrainian president traveled to Moscow – a decision which, according to managers of Western and Ukrainian security, was not only dangerous, but did not mean that Putin was seriously about good negotiations.

“We are going to have to descend very, very strong,” said Trump in reference to Russia. “Strike very hard with sanctions, banks and have to do with oil and prices.

“But I have already done it. I have done a lot,” he said, pointing to 50% prices he put on India and threatened to put China-which are both the largest oil importers in Russia.

“It’s not an easy thing to do. It’s a big problem. And it causes a flaw with India,” he added.

Although Washington has put prices on American imports from India, there are cuts on items such as pharmaceutical products and electronics – the United States is strongly imported from New Delhi.

Although despite the actions taken by the European allies, Trump has not imposed any new sanction directly on Russia since he returned to the White House and faces increasing criticisms for not having taken more immediate measures against Putin after eight months of mandate.

NATO warns Russia after Poland has shot down a large number ” of drones that violated its airspace

Less than Trump met Putin in what was described as a productive meeting, the Kremlin “interrupted” negotiations with Ukraine-which had not made real progress in establishing a cease-fire-and almost two dozen Russian drones entered Poland earlier this week, provoking a multi-nation-nation-nation response.

“The communication channels exist, they are established, our negotiators have the possibility of communicating via these channels, but for the moment, perhaps, we can speak of a break,” the Kremlin spokesperson said on Bloomberg report on Friday.

The NATO allies were on alert this week after the attack on the drone that Trump had suggested could have been a mistake, but that Poland and Ukraine fervently rejected like any kind of accident.

“We also want the attack on the drone against Poland to be an error,” Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk said on Friday. “But that was not the case. And we know it.”

On Friday, Russia also launched war matches at the Bélarus, which not only shared a border with Poland, but some of the drones that entered the Warsaw Airsace Space on Wednesday came from the Moscow ally where Russian troops began to raise earlier this week.
