Trump Shares Editorial Blasting Putin, Signals Displeasure After Peace Talks Setback

  • Donald Trump shared a New York Post editorial critical of Russian President Vladimir Putin on social media.
  • The editorial, titled "Putin 'attack' bluster shows Russia is the one standing in the way of peace," urges Trump to "turn up the heat" on Russia.
  • This move follows a setback in peace talks after Putin claimed Ukrainian drones targeted his residence, a claim denied by Ukraine and doubted by US intelligence.
  • The editorial dismisses Russia's allegations as fabricated and calls for escalating penalties and more deadly weapons for Ukraine.
  • CIA Director John Ratcliffe briefed Trump on US intelligence doubting Russia's claims before Trump amplified the editorial.

Why It Matters: Trump signals displeasure with Putin, advocating a tougher stance on Russia after peace talks falter.
