'Something Happened To This Guy': Trump Slams Putin For Russia's Fresh Attack On Ukraine

What US Prez Says?

"He's killing a lot of people. And I don't know what the hell happened to Putin! I've known him a long time. Always gotten along with him. But he's sending rockets into cities and killing people. And I don't like it at all," he said.

"We're in the middle of talking and he's shooting rockets into Kyiv and other cities! I don't like it at all. I don't like what Putin is doing, not even a little bit. He's killing people. And something happened to this guy, and I don't like it," he explained.

Russia's Fresh Attack

Russia carried out the fresh attack after sending 367 drones and missiles across Ukraine, killing 13 and leaving many injured. However, Ukraine has claimed that it has shot down 45 missiles and destroyed 266 drones. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy stated that over 30 cities and villages were hit by fresh strikes.

In a post on his social media account Truth, Trump wrote, "I've always had a very good relationship with Vladimir Putin of Russia, but something has happened to him. He has gone absolutely CRAZY! He is needlessly killing a lot of people, and I'm not just talking about soldiers. Missiles and drones are being shot into Cities in Ukraine, for no reason whatsoever. I've always said that he wants ALL of Ukraine, not just a piece of it, and maybe that's proving to be right, but if he does, it will lead to the downfall of Russia!"

Registering his unhappiness over the development, Trump stated, "Likewise, President Zelenskyy is doing his Country no favors by talking the way he does. Everything out of his mouth causes problems, I don't like it, and it better stop."

He then targeted his predecessor, Joe Biden, claiming that the war would not have started if he were the President. "This is Zelenskyy's, Putin's, and Biden's War, not "Trump's," I am only helping to put out the big and ugly fires, that have been started through Gross Incompetence and Hatred," he added.

Zelenskyy Slams International Community

Earlier, Ukrainian President Zelenskyy targeted the US and the international community over its response. He said, "The world may go on vacation, but the war continues, despite weekends and weekdays," Zelenskyy said. "This cannot be ignored. America's silence, and the silence of others in the world, only encourages Putin."

The Ukraine President stated that the attacks from Russia will continue unless there is serious pressure on its leadership.

The situation comes days after Trump had a lengthy call with Putin last week, thereby trying to get both sides to the negotiating table.

"Always gotten along with him, but he's sending rockets into cities and killing people, and I don't like it at all," Trump had said about Putin.
