Russia rejects Trump’s criticism of the Ukraine war, as Caramelin declared that the country is a “real bear”

On Wednesday, Russia responded to the comments made by President Trump, who disturbed the military capabilities and the economy in Moscow and said that Ukraine could It is possible to restore All the lands that Russian forces have seized since President Vladimir Putin launched a large scale for more than three years.

This was a major transformation in the discourse of Mr. Trump, who previously urged Ukraine to make concessions to end the conflict, but there was no indication that the president would also turn the United States policy to provide more direct support to Kiv.

“Russia was fighting without a goal for three and a half years of war that should have taken a real military force less than a week,” Mr. Trump said as social media on Tuesday. The United Nations General Assembly in New York.

“I think Ukraine, with the support of the European Union, is in a position that enables it to fight and win all Ukraine in its original form. Over time, patience, and financial support for Europe, especially NATO, the original borders from where this war started, a large choice,” said Mr. Trump. “Putin and Russia are in a big economic problem, and this is the time for Ukraine’s behavior.”

“President Trump has heard about what is happening in the Zelinski version, and it seems that at that moment, this issue has become a reason for such an evaluation,” Peskov said in an interview with Russian Radio RBC on Wednesday morning. “We continue our own military operation in order to ensure our interests and achieve the goals set by the Supreme Commander of Putin and the president of our country at the beginning.”

Peskov said that the “distinguished markets” in Russia are no longer in Europe, but in the east, and that the country was economically stable.

“Russia is associated with the bear. There is no paper bears. Russia is a real bear … there is nothing here,” Peskov said. “Russia maintains total economic stability. Yes, Russia faces certain points of tension and problematic points in different sectors of the economy, which are inevitably linked to countless economic restrictions, sanctions that we do not face, and so on, with global economic turmoil. Not only forget economic sanctions.

Separately, in a later briefing on Wednesday, Peskov told reporters: “The fact that they are trying in every way to encourage Ukraine to continue military operations, and the idea that Ukraine can restore anything, in our opinion, a misleading proposal.”

The United States is the most important contributor to NATO and the largest arms supplier for Ukraine, but Mr. Trump wants European allies of America to take more defense burden on the continent – including Ukraine’s support. The President, sometimes, chanted the Kremlin’s novel about the war, and the NATO allies, and it was unclear whether the United States’ policy on Ukraine would change after the apparent rhetorical transformation of Mr. Trump.

“He acknowledged that the conflict is more complicated and that he is clearly frustrated with Putin, so I think it might be a success for Ukrainian and European diplomacy this interpretation,” said Nile Melfin, Director of International Security at the Reuters Center. “The narration has turned around what he is saying, but it still seems about to stay away from the United States from leading the conflict. He returns it to Europe all the time.”

Melfin told Reuters that Mr. Trump’s speech could turn again.

“I think we are always calling for Putin away from the transformation, and for this reason I think the first eight months have eroded confidence in Europe in the Trump administration’s approach, and this does not restore confidence,” said Melvin.

Although Mr. Trump’s clear turning on Ukraine, Peskov said that the relationship between the United States and Russian leaders remained friendly.

“They knew each other for a very long time, and they respect each other. They treat each other warmly,” said Peskov. “This does not prevent them from talking about sharp topics. It does not prevent them from diverges on many issues. After all, each of them has their own interests.”
