PNN – US President Donald Trump once again criticized Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky and said that in his opinion, Zelensky should not participate in the negotiations about the war in Ukraine and stressed that he does not blame Russia for the war, but blames former US President Joe Biden and Zelensky.
According to the report of Pakistan News Network, US President Donald Trump admitted in an interview with Brian Kilmeade on Fox News Radio that Russia has invaded Ukraine, yet claimed US President Joe Biden and Ukrainian President Zelensky are to blame for the failure to negotiate with Moscow.
Trump said about Zelensky: I have been watching for years and I have been watching his negotiations without any trump cards. He has no trump cards. We are tired of these negotiations.
The President of the United States added: Therefore, I do not think that his presence in the meetings is very important. He makes it very hard to make a deal.

Trump: Zelensky and Biden are to blame, not Russia
In this interview, the Republican President of the United States announced that he does not blame Russia for the war in Ukraine, but that Zelensky and Biden are to blame.
Trump said of Russian President Vladimir Putin that he wants to reach an agreement to end the war in Ukraine. The President of the United States said: Putin does not necessarily have to negotiate a cease-fire, because if he wants to, he can get all of Ukraine.
Trump said: Every time I say it’s not Russia’s fault, I always get slammed with fake news. But I’m telling you, Biden made the wrong statement. Zelensky made wrong statements. They were attacked by someone much bigger and much stronger.
In the continuation of the interview with Fox News, the President of the United States continued his criticism of Ukraine and told the host of the program that the visit of the Secretary of the Treasury of the United States to Kiev last week was “pointless”.
The President of the United States said: Zelensky is a dictator without elections and it is better to act immediately because otherwise he will not have a country left.
Russian President Vladimir Putin and Trump talked to each other on the phone and agreed to meet in person. The foreign ministers of Russia and the United States also emphasized in a phone call their commitment to cooperation to resolve bilateral issues, the conflict in Ukraine as well as Palestine.
Following these calls, the Russian and American delegations headed by the foreign ministers of the two countries talked to each other for four and a half hours in Riyadh, the capital of Saudi Arabia.
The war in Ukraine started due to the West’s inattention to Moscow’s security concerns and the expansion of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) forces near the borders of Russia.
