Donald Trump on Sunday called on Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy to halt strikes on Russian diesel, saying the attacks are causing a fuel shortage.
Ukraine’s long-range strikes have been targeting Russia’s oil and gas industry for months, which Kyiv says both funds and directly fuels Moscow’s more than four-year-old invasion of its neighbor.
The Ukrainian drone campaign has caused fuel rationing across Russia, despite the country being a key oil and gas exporter. Other Ukrainian strikes targeted major Russian online retailers, bringing the war ever closer to the public.
Shouldn’t? 100%.
Wouldn’t? 0%
I feel the fuck Trump mentality to my bones. And I get that talking shit in our little corner of the internet will accomplish fuck all either way, so have at it.
But in the big picture, Tango is right, Trump has the power to make things much worse for Ukraine, and the emotional maturity of a two year old. The means don’t justify the ends, especially when those ends are Trump switching from passive fucking with Ukraine, to active.
