Donald Trump criticizes Ukraine for its lack of gratitude and suggests that both Kiev and the Biden administration have fueled the conflict with Russia.

American President Donald Trump launched a harsh criticism of the Ukrainian government, accusing it of a lack of gratitude for American efforts to find a peaceful solution in the conflict with Russia. In a post on Truth Social, Trump stated that the war began because of Joe Biden's election, which he considers invalid, and that this encouraged Putin to invade. He emphasized that, with proper leadership, the war would not have occurred. Trump also criticized Europe for continuing to purchase Russian gas.

His post coincided with meetings between European leaders and Ukrainian representatives in Geneva, where a controversial American plan for Ukraine was discussed, which could put pressure on it. Critics from the Republican camp suggest that Trump's position could lead to a weakening of NATO and greater Russian influence. Speculation has also arisen regarding the possibility that the plan could be drafted with Russian influences, which was denied by Senator Marco Rubio, who stated that the document comes from the American administration but acknowledged that there were contributions from both sides.
