Former US President Donald Trump addressed the top donors of the Republican National Committee on Saturday. During this, he said something that could cause a stir in both Russia and China . In fact, Trump said, 'America should put China's flag on F-22 fighter planes and bomb Russia.' According to US media reports, Trump said, 'Then we should say that China did this. In this way both will start fighting with each other and we will sit and enjoy it. People took it as a joke and laughed a lot.
Trump's statement has come at a time when Republican lawmakers are facing criticism for their irresponsible antics and statements regarding the Russia-Ukraine war. In fact, a Republican senator posted a screenshot of a Zoom meeting with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky on Saturday. Because of this, Zelensky's security was threatened, because the enemy country could trace his location. Earlier, South Carolina MP Lindsey Graham called on the Russian people to assassinate President Vladimir Putin to stop the Ukraine war.
Trump changed stance against Russia
At the same time, Donald Trump called NATO a 'paper lion' and said, 'At what point do countries come and say no, we can no longer tolerate such a huge crime against humanity? We cannot let this happen. We will not let this happen. After Russia's attack on Ukraine, Trump was called a Putin supporter for his praise of Putin and was denounced by the Republican Party. But now Trump's stance has changed and he is attacking Biden for attacking Ukraine. At the same time, he is also criticizing Russia. Trump claimed that if he had been in power, Putin would not have attacked Ukraine.
Russia did not attack any country during my tenure: Russia
Earlier, speaking at another event, Trump had said that he has been the only president in the 21st century, during whose tenure Russia did not attack any country. Trump said, Russia attacked Georgia during Bush's tenure. Russia annexed Crimea during Obama's tenure. At the same time, Ukraine was attacked under Biden's rule. Republican Senator Rick Scott has reportedly said in an interview that in his opinion, sending US troops to Ukraine should not be ruled out completely.
