Asked by Donald Trump from Fox News, if Putin is an obstacle to peace, Trump replied, criticizing Zelenski: “Listen, I had a very difficult conversation with Zelenski, because I didn’t like what he was saying. And it didn’t make it easy. I always said it has no trump. And it really doesn’t have a trump. It’s about a huge army, with someone who is brave, who has excellent equipment. “
The US president then launched severely accusing the previous Biden government of funding Ukraine, stating that 350 billion had been spent (Ukraine denies that amount). Again he called Zelenski “the best trader in the world”. “Do you know what bothers me? I hated to see all this … Sorry, I threw them into the toilet. I hated to see checks issued for $ 60 billion. “
Trump also stressed that Europeans also suffered a lot of it. “They spent a lot of money. Spent 100 billion. We spent 350. It shouldn’t be like that. Everything should be reverse. “
