Donald Trump has blamed Volodymyr Zelensky for “allowing” the war with Russia to begin in a fresh swipe at the Ukrainian president.
Mr Trump said his Ukrainian counterpart and Joe Biden, the former US president, “did an absolutely horrible job” of preventing the conflict between Kyiv and Moscow and called for an end to the war “fast”.
The US president told his followers on Truth Social: “President Zelenskyy and Crooked Joe Biden did an absolutely horrible job in allowing this travesty to begin. There were so many ways of preventing it from ever starting. But that is the past. Now we have to get it to STOP, AND FAST.”
