US President Donald Trump on Tuesday gave strong remarks on the ongoing Ukraine-Russia conflict, claiming that Ukraine, with European Union and NATO support, could potentially reclaim all of its territory.
Trump, in a post on his social media platform Truth Social, slammed Russia’s war effort as “aimless” and described the country as a “paper tiger,” highlighting the severe economic strain on Moscow and major Russian cities caused by the conflict. He noted the difficulty Russians are facing in everyday life, including “the fact that it’s almost impossible for them to get gasoline through the long lines that are being formed,” as well as other challenges impacting Russia’s war economy, which is spending most of its resources on fighting Ukraine.
“Ukraine, 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,” Trump wrote. He emphasized that the country’s people have “great spirit, and only getting better,” and suggested that Ukraine could potentially even go beyond reclaiming its pre-war territory.
Trump also addressed the US role in the conflict, stating that the country will continue supplying weapons to NATO “for NATO to do what they want with them.” He concluded by noting, “Putin and Russia are in BIG Economic trouble, and this is the time for Ukraine to act.”
This marks a pivot from Trump's earlier statements, in which he primarily focused on brokering peace between the two nations in conflict since 2022.
Trump supports Nato on shooting down Russian jets violating their airspace
In an another development against Russia, Trump said that he agrees with Nato shooting down Russian jets violating their airspaces. When asked by a reporter whether NATO countries should shoot down Russian aircraft that violate their airspace, Trump replied, “Yes, I do.”
However, he stopped short of committing the United States to taking such action. “Depends on the circumstance,” Trump said, as cited by CNN. “But you know, we’re very strong toward NATO.”
Trump also sidestepped questions on whether Russian President Vladimir Putin is ready for peace despite recent escalations.
