Donald Trump has finally spoken out after attending Pope Francis’ funeral, where he also had a meeting with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy. After the event, Trump took to his social media platform, Truth Social, and launched a strong attack on Russian President Vladimir Putin.
In his post, Trump said he’s been trying to clean up what he called the “mess” left behind by former Presidents Obama and Biden. He explained that despite all the work he’s been doing, he couldn’t ignore what had been happening lately — Putin had been firing missiles into civilian areas, hitting cities and towns, causing even more death and destruction.
Trump expressed frustration, saying that these actions made him question Putin’s true intentions. He said it now seems like Putin doesn’t actually want peace and might just be leading him on without any real plan to end the war. Trump suggested that a new approach might be needed to deal with Russia, possibly using tougher economic measures like cutting off banking connections or placing even harsher secondary sanctions on the country.
He ended his message by emphasizing how serious the situation has become, saying that way too many innocent people are dying because of the ongoing violence. His post showed a shift in his tone toward Putin, suggesting that Trump might be losing patience and could be willing to support stronger actions against Russia if needed.
