Trump Slams Putin, Contradicts Prior Claims on Ukraine War
Tap title to read story
Following the passage of his 'big, beautiful bill,' Donald Trump unexpectedly launched a scathing attack on Vladimir Putin, calling him "absolutely crazy" for the ongoing war in Ukraine. Trump's outburst, fueled by wounded pride and Putin's rejection of Trump's claims to quickly end the conflict, contradicts his previous statements supporting Putin's desire for peace. This shift has prompted speculation in Washington about whether Trump will follow through on his threats of sanctions against Russia, while a bipartisan Senate resolution prepares to impose new sanctions if peace talks fail.
