Trump tweets on Ukraine war, says it needs to be stopped quickly

Trump is out with a message on Truth Social about the Ukraine war. Peace and ceasefire negotiations have brought little progress and there is talk about a Russian spring offensive.

I wouldn’t take this as a sign of optimism but he’s still talking about ending it:

“The War between Russia and Ukraine is Biden’s war, not mine. I just got here, and for four years during my term, had no problem in preventing it from happening. President Putin, and everyone else, respected your President! I HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH THIS WAR, BUT AM WORKING DILIGENTLY TO GET THE DEATH AND DESTRUCTION TO STOP. If the 2020 Presidential Election was not RIGGED, and it was, in so many ways, that horrible War would never have happened. President Zelensky and Crooked Joe Biden did an absolutely horrible job in allowing this travesty to begin. There were so many ways of preventing it from ever starting. But that is the past. Now we have to get it to STOP, AND FAST. SO SAD!”

At the moment, Ukraine officials are having a very tough time striking a minerals/ports deal.
