The message was posted after a meeting he had with the President of Ukraine, Volodimir Zelenski, a meeting in which the US president praised the incarnation with the Ukrainian fighters defended his country.
Donald Trump has shared in Social Media what seems to be a major change in his position on the Ukraine war-and what could happen if and when the fights are over.
“After I came to know and fully understand the military and economic situation of Ukraine/Russia and, after seeing the economic problems that cause Russia, I think that Ukraine, with the support of the European Union, is able to fight and regain the whole Ukraine in its original form. A very realistic option.
Trump claims that the way the war has shown that Russia seems to be more “a paper tiger” than a great military power.
“Russia has been fighting for three and a half years without a precise purpose in a war that a real military power would have won in less than a week. This does not honor Russia. In fact, it makes it look” a paper tiger. ” When people living in Moscow and in all major cities, localities and districts in all Russia will find out what really happens in this war, the fact that it is almost impossible for them to get gas because of the long tails that are formed and all the other things that happen in their war economy, where most of them have a great spirit. Recover the country in its original form and, who knows, can even go further! ”, Wrote Donald Trump.
At the same time, he reiterated the US commitment to provide weapons to NATO, so that the Alliance could transfer them to the Ukrainian army.
“Putin and Russia are in a very difficult economic situation, and this is the right time for Ukraine to act. In any case, I wish both countries. We will continue to provide NATO weapons to do what it wants with them.”, Trump concluded.
Cordial meeting with Zelenski
His post comes after a meeting he had with Volodimir Zelenski in New York, in the margin of the UN General Assembly. The meeting went very cordially, Trump praising the Ukrainian resistance in the face of the invasion.

With a very warm tone, Trump called his Ukrainian counterpart “a big man” and said he “carries an extraordinary struggle”. “We have a great respect for the struggle that Ukraine carries, is quite amazing,” the US president said.
Trump then offered Zelenski the opportunity to talk about the successes of Ukraine on the front, saying, “Do you want to tell us how you do on the battlefield?”.
For his part, Volodimir Zelenski said he would inform Trump about military situations on the front, adding that “we have good news.” The Kiev leader said they will discuss security guarantees for Ukraine and the prospect of exerting greater pressure on Russia.
Continuing the change of tone about Ukraine, Trump once again stated that her soldiers and citizens “are very brave”. “Look, they are fighting, and this war lasts for three and a half years,” the American leader of New York reporters told. “People believed it would end quickly, because Russia is a great military power, and Ukraine, I tell you, has good fighters,” Trump continued.
These statements mark a significant change in Trump's tone to Ukraine, the February confrontation in the Oval Bureau is still alive then there is a face -to -face meeting between Trump and Zelenski.
