🇺🇸🇷🇺🇺🇦⚡- "About Trump's threats against me on his personal 'Truth' social media network, which he's banned in our country.

If some words from the former president of Russia trigger such a nervous reaction from the high-and-mighty president of the United States, then Russia is doing everything right and will continue to proceed along its own path.

Ukraine, however, has also suffered greatly. They have lost approximately 8,000 soldiers since January 1, 2025, and that number does not include their missing. Ukraine has also lost civilians, but in smaller numbers, as Russian rockets crash into Kyiv, and other Ukrainian locales.

This is a War that should have never happened — This is Biden’s War, not “TRUMP’s.” I’m just here to see if I can stop it!" - President Donald Trump.

President Trump says Russia has lost 112,500 soldiers since the start of the year, compared to Ukraine's 8,000. According to the President, a KD ratio of 14:1 in Ukraine's favor.
