“Russia fights very well in the winter. They beat Germany, they beat Napoleon,” Trump said in an interview with former Navy SEAL Sean Ryan on YouTube. “They’re not easy to beat. They’re a formidable military power. Ukraine is not. We’re putting a lot of money into Ukraine and it’s unfair.”
According to the politician’s calculations, Kiev has already received nearly $ 250 billion in aid from Washington, while the Republican noted that Ukraine “traditionally suffers from a very high level of corruption.”
Trump pointed out that Europe paid Ukraine a maximum of $80 billion, and this is unacceptable, indicating that “they should pay the same as us.”
Earlier on Monday, former US President Donald Trump confirmed that NATO countries had spent less than 2% of their gross domestic product on their armies for years, which had a negative impact on US forces.
Ukraine has received massive financial and military aid from Western countries, led by the United States and other European countries, since the start of the Russian special military operation in Ukraine on February 24, 2022.
Western countries, through the material, military and political support they provide to Kiev, seek to obstruct the goals of the Russian special military operation in Ukraine. However, Moscow has confirmed on more than one occasion that military operations in Donbass will not stop until all tasks assigned to it are achieved.
Russia had previously sent a note to NATO countries regarding the pumping of Western weapons into Ukraine, as Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov stressed that any shipment containing weapons to Ukraine would become a legitimate target for Russian forces.
