Donald Trump ‘not far away from truth’ on Ukraine: Kremlin

The Kremlin’s press secretary says former US President Donald Trump has got it right in his observation regarding his successor’s opposition to restoring peace in Ukraine.

Trump basically nailed it by suggesting that the White House could put an end to the Ukraine conflict in no time, Dmitry Peskov said at a media briefing on Friday.

Hours earlier, Trump had written on his social media platform, Truth Social, that if he “were president, the Russia/Ukraine war would never have happened.” Even if it did and he was still US President, Trump said he “would be able to negotiate an end to this horrible and rapidly escalating war within 24 hours.”

Commenting on Trump’s remarks, Peskov said that the former president is “theoretically… not far away from the truth.”

“Indeed, should the US President wish to put an end to this conflict, he could do it very quickly, using the opportunity to simply give instructions to the Kiev regime,” the Kremlin spokesman noted.

Such a result is impossible to achieve “overnight or in a couple of days, but in many respects, the key to the Kiev regime resides in Washington’s hands,” he further noted.

Peskov went on to say US President Joe Biden seems reluctant to embrace such a policy, opting instead for “pumping Ukraine with weapons even further.”
