US President Donald Trump intensified his criticism of Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, over their tense Oval Office meeting last month. \”He took money out of this country, under Biden, like candy from a baby. It was so easy,\” Trump stated during his Sunday interview with Maria Bartiromo on Fox News. Previously, Trump had ordered a pause on all military aid to Ukraine, escalating tensions between Washington and Kyiv just days after a heated Oval Office confrontation. The move effectively halts the delivery of billions in US weaponry, leaving Ukraine uncertain about its ability to sustain its defense against Russia. \”I just don’t think he’s grateful. We gave him 350 billion and he is talking about the fact that they have fought and they have this bravery,\” Trump added. The Republican president further emphasised his role in providing Javelin anti-tank weapons to Ukraine,. asserting that the ongoing conflict would have been prevented had he been in office when it commenced in 2022.
