Former US President Donald Trump warned that Ukraine could be destroyed within a year and a half if a solution to the conflict is not reached. He reaffirmed the guarantee of reaching a settlement in Ukraine in one day, if he wins the upcoming presidential elections. Trump pointed out, in an interview with “Fox News”, broadcast yesterday (Monday), that the Ukrainian crisis “may not be resolved” before the presidential elections scheduled for 2024, considering that the policy of President Joe Biden’s administration portends the outbreak of a “third world war.”
He said: It is unbelievable that people in power do not know what to do. If a solution is not found, I can do it within 24 hours with the participation of Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky and Russian President Vladimir Putin. He added, "These will be very simple negotiations, but I will not reveal the essence of it, because then I will not be able to use these negotiations, as they will not succeed."
The former president continued, saying: We are separated from that by a year and a half, which is a very long period. I cannot imagine what could happen during this period.. In short, the war must stop because Ukraine is at risk of being destroyed.
Trump has previously announced that if he wins the presidential election, he can guarantee a settlement in Ukraine in one day, without specifying the method through which he intends to achieve this goal.
Trump confirmed to a rally of his supporters in Waco, Texas, that he was the one who started supplying weapons to Ukraine. "I gave them hundreds of Javelin anti-tank missile systems," he said, adding that his predecessor Barack Obama only sent "pillows" to Kiev, referring to non-combat military equipment.
