to "Force Russia to Negotiate" 🤔💥— Financial Times👀💥
In a stunning revelation, the Financial Times reports that U.S. President Donald Trump, during a private call with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, floated the idea of deep strikes into Russian cities — including Moscow and St. Petersburg — as a strategy to pressure the Kremlin into negotiations.
🔹 According to sources familiar with the July 4 call, Trump asked:
“Volodymyr, can you hit Moscow? Can you hit St Petersburg too?”
Zelenskyy reportedly replied: “Absolutely. We can if you give us the weapons.”
Trump responded that it would “make them [Russians] feel the pain” and force them to the table.
The explosive conversation allegedly came just 48 hours after Trump’s call with Putin, fueling concerns over his unpredictable foreign policy direction.
