President Trump expressed skepticism about Vladimir Putin's desire to end the war in Ukraine, suggesting that he may be manipulating the situation. Following a meeting with Ukrainian President Zelensky, Trump indicated that Putin's recent missile attacks on civilian areas imply he is not serious about pursuing peace. He proposed that Russia must be handled differently, potentially through increased sanctions. This discussion follows recent violent incidents in Ukraine, including a deadly missile strike in Kyiv and Trump's first in-person meeting with Zelensky since a controversial earlier encounter.
âThere was no reason for Putin to be shooting missiles into civilian areas, cities and towns, over the last few days,â Trump wrote on Truth Social.
âIt makes me think that maybe he doesn't want to stop the war, he's just tapping me along, and has to be dealt with differently, through 'Banking' or 'Secondary Sanctions?' Too many people are dying!!!â
âThe meeting was Trump and Zelensky's first face-to-face since the infamous Feb. 28 Oval Office blow-up that had been caught on camera.â
âZelensky praised the encounter as a âgood meetingâ and released photos of the two men talking.
