Trump calls Putin 'crazy' after largest Russian drone attack on Ukraine
- On Sunday, President Donald Trump sharply criticized Russian President Vladimir Putin following Russia's largest aerial attack on Ukraine since February 2022, which heavily targeted Kyiv and other cities.
- The attack came amid ongoing three-year hostilities after Russia's full-scale invasion in February 2022 and follows recent attempts at ceasefire talks between Trump and Putin.
- Russia launched around 355 drones and numerous missiles overnight in what Ukrainian officials called the largest drone barrage of the war, resulting in at least 12 deaths including children and dozens wounded.
- Trump described Putin as "crazy" and expressed confusion about his recent actions, noting that although he had known Putin for a long time and had a good relationship with him, he disapproved of the Russian leader's bombardment of Ukrainian cities. He also warned that if Putin attempts to take control of all Ukraine, it could ultimately result in Russia’s collapse.
- This month, the European Union escalated its response to Moscow's ongoing aggression by implementing additional punitive measures, reflecting growing international efforts to pressure Russia amid the continuing conflict.
