Trump blames Ukraine for war as Russian attacks intensify in Odesa
Donald Trump has blamed Ukraine for the ongoing war with Russia, criticizing President Volodymyr Zelensky for not securing peace sooner. Trump dismissed Zelensky's concerns about being excluded from recent US-Russia peace talks, stating Ukraine should have ended the conflict. This statement comes as Russian forces intensified attacks on Odesa, hitting a children's clinic and leaving the city without power. Zelensky has insisted that Ukraine must be included in any discussions about its future and rejected any agreements made without its input. Trump also claimed that Zelensky's support in Ukraine is low and suggested that European countries could send troops to assist. Meanwhile, Zelensky reaffirmed Ukraine's refusal to accept Russian demands and emphasized the need for fair negotiations.
