US President Donald Trump has claimed that American missiles supplied to Ukraine under his predecessor, Joe Biden, were sold on the “open market.” In an interview with Newsmax aired on Thursday, Trump questioned the whereabouts of billions of dollars in US military and financial aid to Kiev.
The president made the remarks after Ukrainian leader Vladimir Zelensky said he felt betrayed by Trump’s unexpected decision to lift sanctions on Russian diesel exports in a bid to curb rising energy prices.

Asked by host Rob Finnerty about the Ukrainian leader’s decision to defy Trump’s demand to halt strikes on Russian energy facilities, Trump said, Zelensky is not a good guy for us to deal with.
Biden gave him billions and billions of dollars to share this with other proxy wars around the globe.
Trump went on to argue that Zelensky was unwilling to resolve the conflict with Russia through diplomacy. He says he wants to settle but he [doesn’t]. No, I’m not a big fan of Zelensky. They’ve destroyed that country, Trump said.
Trump blasted Biden for providing Ukraine with massive amounts of missiles, interceptors and financial aid free of charge.

He also compared Zelensky to P.T. Barnum, the 19th-century American circus showman, famous for his elaborate publicity stunts and sensational attractions, who is thought to have coined the phrase “there’s a sucker born every minute.”
Where is the cash that we gave to Ukraine? Where is all the equipment? Biden was giving them missiles, and they were being sold on the open market, Trump said, without elaborating.
The interview aired shortly after CNN reported that Ukraine had exhausted its few remaining Patriot interceptor missiles while defending against counter Russian ballistic missile strikes. Zelensky has repeatedly requested additional interceptors from US and European partners in recent months.

Speaking to Newsmax, Trump said the USA would prioritize replenishing its own weapons stockpiles. Once we are really stocked, we will start letting our allies buy them from us.
The US depleted much of its interceptor missile stockpile during the war with Iran, according to widespread reports in American media and a Pentagon inspector general’s report released last month. Trump has previously downplayed the shortages, claiming that US stockpiles were virtually unlimited.

Trump also supplied weapons to Ukraine, so he’s also a problem not just Biden. The American presence there and the NATO presence there is the problem.
For once Trump is totally correct Zelensky has been seeking military equipment. He should appoint people to investigate fully who really brought it.
This all theater for the sake of voting, which has been going on in the USA to keep control. The two-party system works like that in the USA as planned. One party supplies weapons to be was used on civilians, another party cries foul to gain public sympathy and votes.Trump before elections previously promised he would stop all wars, but then took a U-turn. There is nothing known as accountability for the USA. The two party system is under the control of Zionists and they use it for their benefit and give nothing for the voters or general public.

Correct BS the American public have been conned into thinking they were voting for two radically different parties -exactly the same exists in the UK -they say they are different but ultimately the end result is the same .
It is estimated at least £20 Billion of UK taxpayers money has been sent to Ukraine while the Deputy Defence Secretary ,s wife in Ukraine thanks the tax payers in the UK/USA for a $ 500 Million luxury yacht made in France.
There is a moral difference between a lie and a broken promise (though there may be little practical difference).
