This was stated by American pastor and politician, Trump supporter Mark Burns in an interview with Antin Borkovskyi, host of Espreso TV."The devastation is overwhelming. More than 700 religious institutions have been intentionally destroyed by the Russian Federation, because they believe that by destroying the churches they will destroy the faith and the will of the Ukrainian people. Over 20,000 children have been kidnapped. Our First Lady, Melania Trump, even wrote a letter directly to Vladimir Putin regarding the children, calling: Bring back our children. These are atrocities that I have witnessed.The war crimes in Bucha were devastating. I saw them firsthand. The white bandanas there signified that people were non-combatants, not soldiers. Yet the Russian Federation used those same white bandanas to tie the hands of innocent women, elderly men, and even children, and then executed them with shots to the back of the head," he said.Burns underscored that the bombs continue to fall on Ukraine."Just a couple of weeks ago, while I was in Ukraine, I saw it myself. I was deeply honored to receive the Order of Merit, third class, from your president. But during Independence Day, only two hours after I left my hotel, the bombs started again. While General Kellogg and I were present, they did not bomb. But as soon as we left, the attacks resumed. That angered me deeply," the pastor said.The pastor noted that his message to the president has always been consistent and clear."My message to the president has always been clear. Every act of evil, every crime, every devastation caused by the Russian Federation has convinced me that our great and powerful president, Donald Trump, is right to act as he is acting now. He has made it very clear: if Russia does not agree to a peace deal, the consequences for Russia will be severe," he pointed out.He emphasized that before our eyes a new “axis of evil” is taking shape: China, India, North Korea, and Russia have united."It is disappointing that India is among them, and especially disappointing that Prime Minister Modi, a personal friend of President Trump, has chosen this path.But the president has made it very clear: we will not be moved. My prayer is that we reach a peace deal as quickly as possible, that the deaths stop, that the sovereignty of Ukraine continues to grow, and that the Ukrainian economy continues to strengthen. Ukraine belongs to Ukraine and will never belong to Russia. That is why President Trump is positioning two nuclear submarines in the region," Burns said.ChatGPT сказал:In his view, NATO allies and European partners have rallied around Ukraine, as we have clearly drawn the line: Russia is not allowed to advance further."If we do not stop Russia in Ukraine, we will be forced to stop them in Moldova or in one of the Baltic states. That would trigger Article 5. We must stop them now. I have made sure the president, the White House, and the State Department know exactly what I saw firsthand, and I believe that has played a small part.I do not seek any credit, because the president has great advisors like General Kellogg, who are working tirelessly behind the scenes. I have been in direct communication with him as well, sharing what must be done to reach a peace deal," he summed up.
