Trump is unhappy that Russia is bombing Ukraine “like crazy”

US President Donald Trump has expressed his dissatisfaction with the current situation in the Russian war against Ukraine, in particular with Russian missile attacks on Ukrainian cities.

He said this at a meeting with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in the Oval Office.

Trump noted that he does not know “what is going on there, but it is a very bad situation.”

“I’m not happy about what’s going on with the bombing because they’re bombing like crazy right now. They’re bombing — I don’t know what’s happening there,” Trump said.

US President Donald Trump added that the United States is negotiating with both Russia and Ukraine on a potential peaceful settlement.

“And we’re getting closer (to a settlement—Ed.), but I’m not happy with all the bombing that’s been going on for the last week or so. It’s very bad,” Trump summarized.

Recently, US Secretary of State Marco Rubio said that the Trump administration expects Russia to be ready to end the war.

At the same time, the media reported that senior Trump administration officials have begun to admit that the United States may not be able to reach a peace agreement in Ukraine in the following months due to additional conditions imposed by the Russian side during the negotiations.

Trump himself has previously said that he was “furious” after Kremlin leader Vladimir Putin questioned the legitimacy of the Ukrainian president Volodymyr Zelenskyy.

The latest Russian escalation includes a deadly missile strike on Kryvyi Rih, Volodymyr Zelenskyy’s hometown, on April 4. The attack killed 20 people, including 9 children. On April 6, a Russian ballistic missile strike on Kyiv killed one and injured three others.

Although Trump has repeatedly voiced disapproval over the violence, he has yet to introduce direct measures to pressure Russia, which continues its offensive operations in Ukraine.
