Trump Claims Ukraine War Promise Was “Sarcastic,” Sparking Outrage
During a recent interview, President Trump clarified his past campaign statements regarding a swift resolution to the Russia-Ukraine conflict, admitting they were “a little bit sarcastic.” He maintains a belief in his ability to broker peace, asserting he could achieve a settlement quickly through direct communication with both leaders. Despite this confidence, he acknowledged dire global consequences should Russian President Vladimir Putin refuse a ceasefire. His special envoy is currently engaged in Moscow to pursue a U.S.-proposed ceasefire plan.
