Istanbul - United States President Donald Trump has expressed his disapproval over Russian President Vladimir Putin for continuing missile strikes on Ukrainian cities, including Kyiv and other urban centers. Trump, speaking to reporters in New Jersey before his return to Washington, D.C, stated that he is "not happy" with Putin and is considering imposing new sanctions on Russia.
At least 12 people have been killed in Ukraine following large-scale drone attacks, making it the second consecutive night of bombardments. According to reports, Putin's latest strikes have targeted various areas of the war-torn country.
Trump, who has had a history with Putin, expressed his surprise and disapproval, stating, "We're in the middle of talking, and he's shooting rockets into Kyiv and other cities. I don't like it at all." He further emphasized his frustration by reiterating several times that he is not pleased with Putin's actions.
When asked about imposing sanctions, Trump responded: "Absolutely."
Last week, during a phone call with European leaders, Trump stated that Putin is not ready to end the war in Ukraine as he believes he is winning, according to reports by The Wall Street Journal.
During Trump's tenure, the U.S.-Russia relationship has been fraught with tension, with several conflicts over disputed territories and cyber attacks. As the conflict in Ukraine continues, it remains unclear how the U.S. will respond to Russia's missile strikes.
- The ongoing conflict in Ukraine, marked by Russia's missile strikes, is a significant point of concern in the general news, political, and war-and-conflicts spheres.
- The latest Russian missile strikes have been a subject of discussion in the realm of history, as they echo past tensions between the U.S. and Russia, particularly during President Trump's term.
- Amidst the current geopolitical landscape, the entertainment sector has also engaged with these events, with news anchor shows often covering the U.S. President's reactions to the missile strikes.
- Given the economic repercussions of repeated sanctions on Russia, the business and policy-and-legislation sectors are closely watching President Trump's decision to impose new sanctions on Russia in response to the missile strikes in Ukraine.
