“I think Ukraine, with the support of the European Union, is in a position to fight and WIN all of Ukraine back in its original form.”
President Donald Trump has said that with the help of the European Union as well as NATO, Ukraine is in a position to win back all territory that it has lost to Russia. He made the statement after speaking to the UN on Tuesday.
"After getting to know and fully understand the Ukraine/Russia Military and Economic situation and, after seeing the Economic trouble it is causing Russia, I think Ukraine, with the support of the European Union, is in a position to fight and WIN all of Ukraine back in its original form. With time, patience, and the financial support of Europe and, in particular, NATO, the original Borders from where this War started, is very much an option. Why not? Russia has been fighting aimlessly for three and a half years a War that should have taken a Real Military Power less than a week to win." Trump said.
"This is not distinguishing Russia. In fact, it is very much making them look like 'a paper tiger.' When the people living in Moscow, and all of the Great Cities, Towns, and Districts all throughout Russia, find out what is really going on with this War, the fact that it’s almost impossible for them to get Gasoline through the long lines that are being formed, and all of the other things that are taking place in their War Economy, where most of their money is being spent on fighting Ukraine, which has Great Spirit, and only getting better, Ukraine would be able to take back their Country in its original form and, who knows, maybe even go further than that! Putin and Russia are in BIG Economic trouble, and this is the time for Ukraine to act. In any event, I wish both Countries well. We will continue to supply weapons to NATO for NATO to do what they want with them. Good luck to all!"
The post from Trump comes after he spoke to the United Nations on Tuesday, where he expressed disappointment that the war between Russia and Ukraine has not ended yet. He called on European countries to stop purchasing oil and energy from Russia, adding the remark that those reliant on Russia for energy in Europe were “funding the war against themselves."
The war between Russia and Ukraine has been raging on since 2022 of the Biden administration. Trump has repeatedly said, and said during his UN address, that if he was president the war would never have started.
