It wasn’t all that long ago that ruler Donald Trump reinstated military aid to Ukraine. Now he’s vowing to withdraw the United States from the Ukrainian “mess.”

Trump Mulls ANOTHER NEW Aid Package For Ukraine

The current ruler has said that this war is not his, but belongs to his predecessor, Joe Biden. When asked by journalists on Tuesday why the U.S. should keep funding Ukraine as Kiev grows increasingly more coercive in its draft campaign, Trump responded: “This is Biden’s war. This is not my war. I’m here to get us out of it. It’s a mess, and I’m here to get us out.”

The journalist then referenced Ukrainian president Volodymyr Zelensky’s most recent decree to conscript men over the age of 60 to fight an unwinnable war. ”I haven’t heard that, when you say about 60-year-old men,” Trump said. “But this is Biden’s war. And we’re working very hard to get us out.”

Except that nothing Trump has done other than say words has been action-worthy in actually removing the U.S. from the war.

Trump is also threatening to impose additional sanctions and tariffs on Russia’s trading partners to pressure Moscow to accept a peace deal to end the war. So far, Russia has mocked Western attempts at sanctions, saying that they’ve been ineffective.

According to a report by RT, when asked whether he was prepared to follow through on his attempts to execute an economic war, Trump said a decision would be made after a scheduled meeting in Russia this week involving his special envoy, Steve Witkoff.

”I never said a percentage [for tariffs], but we’ll be doing quite a bit of that,” Trump said. “We have a meeting with Russia tomorrow [on Wednesday]… We’ll make that determination at that time.”

Moscow has condemned Trump’s tariff threats as violations of other nations’ sovereign rights to choose their own trade partners and economic allies. “We believe that sovereign states should have, and do have, the right to choose their own trade partners,” Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said on Tuesday.
