US leader Donald Trump has once again drawn the international community's attention to how Russian dictator Vladimir Putin is being humiliated during the war against Ukraine. The US president does not understand why the Kremlin leader is fighting for years if he was going to win in a matter of days.
Points of attention
- Despite ignoring Putin's years-long conflict with Ukraine, Trump shows anticipation for Zelensky's request for military assistance.
- Trump's critical stance towards Putin's actions highlights the strained relationship between the US and Russian leadership.
Trump continues to mock Putin
The head of the White House made a new statement on this matter during a meeting with Argentine President Javier Milay.
He reiterated that he was “very disappointed” with the Russian dictator.
Listen, I'm very disappointed because I had a very good relationship with Vladimir (Putin — ed.). I probably still do. I don't know why he's continuing this war. This war is a real disaster for him. He's entering the fourth year of a war that he should have won. He should have won this war in one week. He's going to enter his fourth year of war very soon.

He would like to get a Tomahawk. Everybody wants a Tomahawk. And we have a lot of Tomahawks. A Tomahawk is... By the way, do you need Tomahawks in Argentina?" Trump asked.
