The long-promised peace deal between Ukraine and Russia remains a distant dream, and Donald Trump appears to have reached the end of his rope. In a blistering statement that’s already setting the internet ablaze, the former president unleashed a scathing attack on Volodymyr Zelensky, turning what was once diplomatic posturing into a full-blown ultimatum. Trump, who once boasted he could end the war in “24 hours,” is now abandoning all pretenses of patience,
With fury aimed straight at Kyiv, Trump accused Zelensky of sabotaging peace and dragging Ukraine toward collapse. “He can have Peace or, he can fight for another three years before losing the whole Country,” Trump declared on Truth Social, adding that Zelensky’s recent remarks would only prolong the “killing field.” The spark? Zelensky’s vow to never recognize Russia’s hold on Crimea — a stance Trump blasted as “very harmful” and out of touch with reality. He pointed fingers at the Obama administration, insisting Crimea was lost long ago, and slammed Ukraine for failing to fight for it then. “Nobody is asking Zelenskyy to recognize Crimea as Russian Territory,” Trump wrote, “but if he wants Crimea, why didn’t they fight for it eleven years ago?”
As tensions soar, Trump’s rhetoric is being backed up by bold moves on the ground. U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio hinted the U.S. could walk away from talks entirely, warning, “It’s not our war.” A planned meeting in London was abruptly scrapped, and Trump’s peace envoy was spotted heading to Moscow — a stunning shift that’s left allies reeling. One UK official bluntly told the Daily Mail, “The US are f***ing up everything.” Former UK Defence Secretary Ben Wallace didn’t mince words either, blaming Trump’s “red-neck team” for risking the next global conflict. Whether it’s bold leadership or reckless brinkmanship, one thing is clear: Trump is done waiting — and the world is on edge.
