Reason Trump changed his mind on war in Ukraine as Putin ally threatens to drop nuclear bombs on two major cities
Donald Trump’s change of heart about the Ukraine war came before an ally of Vladimir Putin threatened to drop two bombs on a European country.
Things are getting very worrisome in the Russia-Ukraine conflict, and now that Trump has seemingly changed his thoughts on Ukraine, the consequences are even more serious.
The POTUS said that Kyiv can ‘win all of Ukraine back in its original form’ in its war with Russia in a Truth Social post, shocking just about everyone.
Writing on his social media platform, he said the nation could get back ‘the original borders from where this war started’ in collaboration with Europe and NATO.

His seeming change of heart came after meeting with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, post UN General Assembly in New York on September 23.
Trump said he changed his mind about Ukraine after 'getting to know and fully understand the Ukraine/Russia military and economic situation'.
He said: “Putin and Russia are in BIG Economic trouble, and this is the time for Ukraine to act."
In the lead-up to his meeting with Zelenskyy at the UN, the Wall Street Journal reported the president met with US officials who suggested he be tougher on Vladimir Putin’s war.
Ukraine envoy Keith Kellogg and the new UN ambassador Mike Waltz were allegedly in the meeting too.
The Journal added that intelligence officials briefed them on the latest situation, revealing Russia has made only small progress in recent years.
According to Vice President JD Vance, who spoke in North Carolina on September 24, Trump ‘doesn't feel like [the Russians] are putting enough on the table to end the war’.
However, while Trump has seemed to side with Zelenskyy, he still restricts US weapons from striking deep inside Russia, reports the Independent.
It’s miles away from the way he thought about the situation back in February at the Oval Office when Trump told his Zelenskyy that he couldn’t win the war against Russia, saying: “You don’t have the cards right now.”
He told him that his ‘country is in big trouble... you’re not winning this’.
His change of heart came right before reports that one of Russia's leading propagandists has urged the Kremlin to drop two nuclear bombs on the UK during his state-run TV show, which has been shocking for many to learn.
Putin ally Vladimir Solovyov was speaking with Sergei Karaganov about the chances of a nuclear war being something Russia could win when he revealed that tactical atomic weapons could stop potential conflict with the US.
He said Europe should know Russia is prepared to use its weapons, and dropping two nuclear bombs on Oxford and Cambridge would be send a message to the world.
Karaganov has previously said that the UK 'should be nuked off the map’.
Having learned of Trump’s new position, the Kremlin swiftly responded.
Trump wrote of the country in his defence of Ukraine: "With time, patience, and the financial support of Europe and, in particular, NATO, the original Borders from where this war started, is very much an option.
"Why not? Russia has been fighting aimlessly for three and a half years, a War that should have taken a Real Military Power less than a week to win. This is not distinguishing Russia. In fact, it is very much making them look like 'a paper tiger'."
To the ‘paper tiger’ comment, the spokesperson for Vladimir Putin, Dmitry Peskov, said: "[Russia] is not a tiger but a bear. Russia is associated with a bear; there are no paper bears."
UNILAD previously reached out to Downing Street for comment on the UK bomb threat.
