In a bold move, President Trump unleashed his frustration with Russian President Vladimir Putin, calling his peace overtures "meaningless." This came just after Trump announced the U.S. would resume sending munitions, like air defense interceptors and precision-guided bombs, to aid Ukraine against the ongoing Russian invasion.
On Tuesday, Trump spoke candidly during a cabinet meeting, stating, “We get a lot of bullshit thrown at us by Putin,” highlighting his growing dissatisfaction with the Russian leader's failed peace efforts. This marks Trump's strongest remarks against Putin since taking office in 2016, representing a significant change in his approach.
The decision to resume sending weapons follows a pause to assess the Pentagon's stockpiles, which had raised concerns among officials. The first batch of weapons, previously held up in Poland, is expected to be sent quickly. Ukraine welcomed the news amidst ongoing Russian air attacks on its cities, showcasing a renewed support from the U.S. at a crucial time in the conflict.
