During a recent press conference, President Donald Trump asserted that Ukraine was responsible for starting the ongoing conflict with Russia, a statement that raised eyebrows among political commentators, including CNN’s Jake Tapper. Tapper highlighted the absurdity of Trump's claims during reports about U.S.-Russia negotiations to end the war, which excluded Ukraine. Trump also questioned the accountability of U.S. military aid to Ukraine, indicating a deeper skepticism regarding U.S. involvement in European matters, a sentiment that resonates within some segments of the Republican party.
We have to equalize with Europe because Europe is giving us a given, a very much smaller percentage in that I think Europe has given 100 billion and we've given, let's say, 300 plus.
Trump's assertion that Ukraine started the war is highly controversial, echoing sentiments from certain factions within the MAGA movement.
