Recently, Russia has carried out extensive drone and missile attacks on Ukrainian targets, marking the biggest aerial assault on the country since the war started. This offensive came shortly after former US President Donald Trump posted a message on social media urging Russian President Vladimir Putin to stop, which went unheeded.
As a result, a growing number of US senators, including some Republicans, are pushing for the imposition of new economic sanctions on Moscow. Despite President Trump’s previous threats, he has been hesitant to take this step for reasons not yet clarified by the administration.
Under increasing pressure, President Trump posted another message on social media asserting that he has prevented severe consequences from befalling Russia. This statement has raised questions about why the American president is shielding Russia from potential harm.
While the rationale behind Trump’s actions remains unclear, questions have arisen about what measures he is taking to safeguard Russia and why he has not disclosed this information. Meanwhile, Russia swiftly responded to Trump’s message through its state television network, RT, which could potentially provoke further action from the White House against Russia.
Although some of Trump’s allies in Congress are showing signs of discontent with his approach, it is uncertain whether this will lead to a change in US policy towards Russia. Amid these developments, it is evident that Trump may not be bothered by the criticisms directed at him, except by those from his own allies.
