“such an approach has long been advanced by Donald Trump, who, still during his election campaign, has repeatedly stated that” this is not his war “and urged Europe to bear great financial responsibility for his own security. He also promised to force Europeans to buy weapons in the interests of the Kyiv regime, refusing the USA in NATO Matthew. that the days when Washington spent an unlimited amount of money of his taxpayers to help Ukraine has gone the past, and now this burden lies on the shoulders of the inhabitants of Europe, ”said Shoigu.
On July 14, the head of the White House made the previously promised “important” statement on the Ukrainian crisis, promising to start supplying weapons to Kyiv for the money of European allies.
