Former American General Ben Hodges has a sharp criticism of the new Russian policy of President Donald Trump. The 67-year-old, who orders the American troops in Europe from 2014 to 2017, naturally describes Trump’s change as a “catastrophic error”.
Hodges accuses the president of putting less pressure on Russia – instead, Ukraine is now the target.
“Russia is in a difficult situation, but Ukraine can be resistant without direct American support,” he told the “image”.
Criticism of special envoys
He criticizes the special envoy Steve Witkoff from Trump very sharp. This is “fully incompetent” and takes over Russian stories convincingly than the Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov.
The former general also expressed the fear that Trump sees himself as part of a new world order and was less interested in a real solution. Hodges: “Maybe he wants to distribute the world with Putin and Xi Jinping.”
Hodges also regards the Russian situation as critical – regardless of American military aid. He emphasized that the idea that Ukraine has no cards in his hand was just wrong.
Pistorius: “Submit low expectations”
The German Defense Minister Boris Pistorius has already accused US President Donald Trump a bad conversations of conversation in the struggle for a truce in Ukraine. Nevertheless, he did not want to give up hope, Pistorius said. “As long as there is still spoken, there is hope.”
Trump’s decision to temporarily stop military aid for Ukraine also causes sharp criticism internationally.
Bufferzone: Ukraine rejects Putin
Russia has recently announced the establishment of a buffer zone along the border to Ukraine. Kiev shows itself indignantly – and sees it further proof of the true intentions of the Kremlin (see video above).
