"King of hypocrisy": Trump makes new statement on Ukraine

Donald Trump said he would do more to protect Ukraine than Joe Biden, who, according to him, would actually give up Ukraine as a gift to Russia.

This is reported by The New York Times.

At a campaign event in North Charleston, South Carolina, Donald Trump said that during Biden's presidency, Putin "...going to be given everything he wants, including Ukraine. That’s a gift. He’s got a gift." He emphasized that Biden would "give" Ukraine to Russian President Vladimir Putin.

It is worth mentioning that for many months, President Biden has been rallying world leaders to provide Ukraine with more military aid. He also pressed Congress to pass a $60 billion-plus aid package to help the country repel Russian aggression. Instead, former President Donald Trump is undermining these efforts by forcing Republicans to thwart the aid.

Earlier "Apostrophe" reported that US President Joe Biden has met with Congress leaders and urged them to promptly unblock additional aid to Ukraine.
