The conductor wrote that for the first time he felt concern that Ukraine would lose the war. He described Donald Trump's recent actions as a betrayal of Europe and the Western democratic world. He accused Trump of colluding with Vladimir Putin, whom he compared to Hitler, and of blaming Volodymyr Zelensky for problems including expensive diesel. According to the conductor, Trump was trying to cover up his own mistake in Iran. He stated that Putin wanted to involve Chinese President Xi Jinping in peace talks regarding Ukraine. He said the negotiations were only labeled as peaceful because Putin's demands would lead to Ukraine's capitulation. He compared Trump to "second fiddle" and wrote that Zelensky admitted Ukraine would not be able to win or even hold out without U.S. support if Washington sided with Russia. The conductor also noted that the Italian defense minister warned about the Russian army's strength of 1.5 million soldiers and that due to its financing from the Russian budget, the war cannot be immediately stopped. He attributed the Kremlin's lack of interest in a ceasefire. He accused the U.S. Secretary of Defense of mocking allied soldiers in Afghanistan, including the fallen, and labeled his actions as an insult. He criticized Europe for its silence and wrote that it seems to him that its representatives are afraid of both Putin and Trump. At the same time, he questioned whether they were waiting for Trump to take a break and change his mind again. #Ukrajina #Putin #Trump (translated)
