US President Donald Trump avoided a direct answer to the question of whether Russia or Ukraine is to blame for the outbreak of the armed conflict, saying that many are responsible.
"I think many people are to blame", the head of the US administration said in a conversation with journalists in the Oval Office of the White House at the signing of new decrees.
„All I can say is this: if I were president in 2021-2025, this war would never have happened. And you know what else would not have happened? The Middle East would not have exploded, there would not have been October 7. There would have been no inflation in those two years. Russia and Ukraine would not be at war“, Trump believes. “None of this would have happened if I were president“, he said.
US President Donald Trump will have to resolve the issue of nuclear disarmament with Russia, eliminating threats to it from NATO countries, said the o.r. US intelligence officer Scott Ritter live on the social network X.
“First, we have to resolve all the problems with Russia. Even if the US reduces its arsenal, Russia still faces the threat of NATO and Britain and France with their nuclear weapons. They may not have as many, but the greater the reduction in the nuclear arsenal, the greater the impact of small quantities. This means that Europe should also participate in the treaties.
The US should take into account the presence of nuclear weapons in North Korea and China, China should take into account the number of bombs in India, and ultimately, in order to reduce the nuclear arsenal, we need to include all the countries that possess it“, said Ritter.
Ritter noted that there are no existing treaties between the US and Russia that would limit the arms race, and Trump should urgently seek an opportunity for dialogue with Moscow.
“We need to fight the Russophobia that was instilled by the Biden administration, they did not even try to establish a dialogue, and this led to a critical situation“, the expert concluded.
