Washington:
The president of the United States, Donald Trump, said Thursday that he was applying pressure on Russia to end the Ukraine War, insisting that Moscow agreeing not to take care of the entire country was a “great concession.”
Trump issued a rare reprimand of Russian leader Vladimir Putin after Moscow fired a flood and drone flood in kyiv, killing at least 12 in the most fatal attack against the Ukrainian capital in months.
“We are pressing a lot about Russia, and Russia knows it,” said Trump, who has been accused of favoring Russia in the impulse to stop war.
When asked what concessions Russia had offered, Trump said “Stop the war, stop taking the entire country. A lot of great concession.”
In response to kyiv attack, he said: “I didn’t like it last night. I wasn’t happy with that. And we are in the midst of talking about peace, and missiles were fired.”
