US President Donald Trump was on the news on Monday (24/2), commenting on the ongoing Ukraine-Russia peace situation. With Russia now more than a thousand days into a three-day military operation intended to bring the country back under Russian control, the US President, who has been allied with Russia's Vladimir Putin for years, is trying to isolate Ukraine from NATO and get Ukraine to sign up to a half-trillion-dollar deal.
This follows accusations from President Trump that Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy was ultimately responsible for Russia's invasion of Ukraine in the first place and also for failing to stop the war after it started.
Russian President Vladimir Putin also spoke to the press in his own timely simultaneous press conference, adding his own remarks to Monday's Ukraine-centric headlines. (Newsmaker23)
