US President Donald Trump has described his campaign promise to end Russias fullscale invasion of Ukraine in 24 hours as sarcasm.
Source European Pravda Trump in interview with journalist Sharyl Attkisson, published on 14 March Details Attkisson noted the difficulty of settling a Russian fullscale invasion of Ukraine while reminding Trump that during the election campaign, he said he would have this war settled in 24 hours.
Quote from Trump Well, I was being a little bit sarcastic when I said that I would.
What I really meant is I would like to get it settled, and I think I will be successful.
Background Ukraine said it is willing to implement a 30day ceasefire, provided Russia also adheres to it, following the talks in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, on 11 March.
Kremlin leader Vladimir Putin reacted cautiously to the US proposal for a ceasefire.
While not rejecting it outright, he hinted that Moscow could impose its conditions on any agreement.
Trump described Putins statement as promising, but not complete.
He also said that if Russia did not agree to a 30day ceasefire, it would be a disappointing moment for the world. Support Ukrainska Pravda on Patreon
