Trump: Putin says Russia will ‘have to’ respond to Ukraine attacks

Vladimir Putin, the president of Russia, stated in a telephone conversation that Russia would have to respond to the recent drone attacks by Ukraine.

Trump claimed on Wednesday that the two men had spoken about the Ukrainian-led attack on Russia’s docked airplanes and other similar attacks that have occurred on both sides.

In a social media post, Trump wrote that Putin “did say, and very strongly, that he will have to respond to the recent attack on the airfields.”

Kimberly Halkett, a journalist for Al Jazeera, claimed Trump’s 85-minute phone call with Putin was “a good conversation but not one that would lead to immediate peace.”

When Donald Trump took office, she said, “You have to remember that this is not over yet, but this is far from resolved,” she said from the White House.

Moscow earlier on Wednesday asserted that Moscow’s military options were “on the table” for its handling of Ukrainian attacks inside Russia, accusing the West of being a part of them.

Following the attacks, which Ukrainian officials praised as showing Kyiv can still fight back after more than three years of war, Russia also urged the US and Britain to restrain the country.

Russian officials have claimed they were unaware of the weekend’s attacks on Russian long-range bombers with nuclear capability.

Trump and Putin discussed Iran in his social media post, according to Trump. Trump, according to Trump, suggested that he speak at a meeting to discuss a new nuclear deal with Tehran.

Trump and I both agreed that Iran cannot have nuclear weapons, according to Trump, who reportedly said the same thing to President Putin. He claimed Iran made “slow-walking” choices in the talks.

Moscow was ready to help advance negotiations on a nuclear deal, Putin told Iran’s president Masoud Pezeshkian, according to the Kremlin on Tuesday.
