Trump Accuses Putin of ‘Bullshit’ Over Ukraine Talks

Welcome to Foreign policyThe situation report, where we dare to anyone to start a third party to disable the Haltanger -INGRAGER division. (Elon Musk tries to do so exactly to Democrats and Republicans, which Rishi wrote this week.)

Well, this is what is on the tap for today: TrumpThe increasing patience with the increasing patience with PutinMore uncertainty Iran’s talksAnd Amnesty International Rubio The caller is a joke.

It seems that US President Donald Trump has lost his patience with Russian President Vladimir Putin after months of failed efforts to secure a peace agreement between Moscow and Kiev – and with Russia continued to hit Ukraine with huge missile attacks and drones.

At the cabinet meeting on Tuesday, Trump has offered one of his most prominent reprimanding to the Russian leader so far, saying: “We have got a lot of nonsense that Putin gave, if you want to know the truth. It is very nice all the time, but it turns out that it does not make sense.” Trump, who had what he described as an unethical phone call to the Russian president last week, added that he was “unhappy” with Putin “because he kills many people.”

On Monday, Trump said he agreed to send more defensive weapons to Ukraine – just days after the Pentagon announced that some delivery operations in some weapons to the country – indicated on Tuesday that it was open to support the Penal Code in Russia, which was paid by the National Party of Senator Lindsay Graham.

If Trump continues in this direction, it represents a noticeable shift in the path.

Previously, Trump was often opposed to US aid to Ukraine – and Ukrainian President Voludmir Zelinski at a hot oval office meeting in February. But Trump and Zelinski are now on better conditions. After meeting with Zelinski at the NATO summit in The Hague in late June, Trump said his Ukrainian counterpart “could not be more beautiful.”

For years, Trump also faced accusations of being very friendly with Putin, a ruthless authoritarian and widely considered a major threat to democracy and global stability. Trump’s critics have long been annoyed by his admiration for Putin, especially given that the Russian president is a former KGB worker who is skilled in the art of manipulation.

Trump may be eliminated again and again such a criticism. (In 2016, for example, Trump explicitly said he did not like Putin, but he believed that Putin was a strong leader.

Meanwhile, experts in Russia and Putin warned that Trump’s approach is completely unlikely to achieve results.

Trump now seems to wake up to the idea that Putin is not honestly interested in ending the war.

“I think we are actually witnessing Donald Trump’s education about Russia in particular,” but also international affairs in general, Kevin Ryan, a retired American dean and former US defense attaché to Russia, said to SITREP. Ryan said Trump is a “businessman”, and he wanted to conclude a “commercial deal” to end the war, but “he faced the fact that this is not a war that will win the negotiating table.”

Ryan, who taught the national security strategy course at Kiev Economics this year, said the people who spoke with them in Ukraine “encouraged Trump’s change in the speech” and his decision to resume arms shipments. However, he said that the Ukrainians “also reduced American support.

It is an open question for how long will Trump’s most supportive position towards Kyiv will continue. The Trump administration policy on Ukraine was everywhere, as it is clear from the cruelty of the last face on arms shipments. Trump evaded the questions about who was stopped, but reports indicate that it was the result of a sudden decision by Defense Minister Beit Higseth. Officials said that stopping stops concerns about exposing American stocks.

Ryan said that to transfer the needle towards a peace agreement, Ukraine will need a lot of “consistency” from the Trump administration in terms of support. “This war cannot win by Europe and Ukraine alone,” he said.

European leaders and officials are still optimistic about Trump’s security obligations, which are reinforced by recognition that the continent should share more burden. This is what we heard from several foreign ministers and defense we talked to at the NATO summit last month.

But Trump’s wild tendencies are always on their minds.

“This year this year was presented … a kind of inability to predict,” said Danish Foreign Minister Lars Loki Rasmussen, who previously served as Prime Minister during the Trump term at the Center for Strategic and International Studies on Tuesday.

However, on the sidelines of the event, Rasmussen told the event that, after his associations with the Trump administration in Washington this week, he feels that Europe “can rely on” the participation of the United States in Ukraine. “I left a clear impression that they are now sharing us in our analysis that real rioters are Putin.”

What should be on your radar, if not really.

Are the United States talks to Iran? Trump said on Monday that Washington and Taraan will soon resume nuclear talks, a few weeks after the country’s historical strikes were requested. “We have identified Iran’s talks,” Trump said during his meeting with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. “They want to speak.” But this seems to be news to Tehran, where the Iranian Foreign Ministry denied that Iran had requested talks.

Although Iran’s best diplomat this week indicated that Tehran is open to a return to diplomacy, he also said that his country was “a good reason for doubts about more dialogue.” Currently, there is no official thing on books.

All this comes amid continuous questions about the full range of damage to American strikes. Trump has repeatedly said that the American strikes destroyed the Iranian nuclear program – and wondered whether the follow -up of the talks with Iran will serve a purpose anymore – but the evaluations are continuing and experts expressed doubts about the administration’s success.

Gaza clinic attacked. According to an Israeli air strike, more than ten people were killed in Gaza, including many children, on Thursday. The strike targeted the city of Deir Al -Bala in the center of Gaza, where people were lining up to receive food support in a health clinic managed by an American aid organization called Project Hope. New York Times. The Israeli army said it was targeting the Hamas fighter, who participated in October 7, 2023, an attack that sparked the current conflict and expressed regret “damage to unjust individuals.”

American mediators and race continue to negotiate a 60 -day ceasefire proposal between Israel and Hamas, which was largely the subject of Netanyahu’s visit to Washington this week, but progress in a deal was slow.

Meanwhile, the United States imposed sanctions on Francesca Albaniz, the United Nations Special Rapporteur in the occupied Palestinian territories. Albaniz called for a ban on trade and weapons on Israel about what she described as “the genocide campaign” in Gaza.
