Donald Trump has recently made it clear that he isn’t happy with Vladimir Putin and Russia has gone on to launch a major attack regardless.
Earlier this week, Donald Trump warned that Russia could face further sanction if the war in Ukraine isn’t resolved.
During a meeting with his cabinet at the White House on Tuesday (July 8), Trump said Russia’s leader Vladimir Putin was ‘killing a lot of people’ in reference to Ukrainian forces.
He also questioned Putin’s determination into having a peaceful resolution to the ongoing conflict.

He said: “We get a lot of b******t thrown at us by Putin. He’s very nice all the time, but it turns out to be meaningless.”
Earlier this year in May, Ukrainian and Russian officials met for talks in Turkey but neither side has been able to agree on a temporary truce or a longstanding ceasefire.

Despite this warning from Trump about sanctions, the Ukrainian capital has been hit overnight by 10-hour-long Russian missile and drone strikes.

Lutsk and Ternopil, situated in the west of Ukraine, were some of the heaviest-hit targets. The strike has also caused a stir amongst NATO member, Poland, who share a boarder with the west of Ukraine.
A statement from Warsaw’s armed forces command said: “In connection with the attack by the Russian Federation’s air forces carrying out strikes on objects located in the territory of Ukraine, Polish and allied aviation has begun operating in Polish airspace.”
This brutal attack on Ukraine also comes after Russia addressed reports that Trump had previously warned against an invasion of Ukraine before he returned to the White House for a second term.
According to a CNN report, during fundraisers while speaking to donors, Trump spoke of a conversation he allegedly had with the Russian leader.

This was caught in a recording where Trump reportedly said: “With Putin I said, ‘If you go into Ukraine, I’m going to bomb the sh*t out of Moscow. I’m telling you I have no choice'.

“And then [Putin] goes, like, ‘I don’t believe you.’ But he believed me 10%.”
However, it is not clear when and in which format these alleged conversations took place with the leaders.

Russia dismissed the claims reportedly from Trump that he said this to Putin.
The spokesman for the Kremlin Dmitry Peskov said: “The fact is that there were no telephone conversations then.
“After all, we are talking, as far as I understand, about the period when Trump was not yet the president of the United States.”
