U.S. President Donald Trump lashed out at Vladimir Putin on Saturday, warning that Russia could soon face tough sanctions following missile attacks on Ukrainian civilians.

After months of boasting about his supposed friendship with the Russian leader, Trump now says he feels betrayed, claiming Putin never truly intended to end the war. Trump hinted that Moscow could be hit with "Banking" or "Secondary Sanctions" as punishment.

In a lengthy post on Truth Social, Trump wrote, “No matter what deal I make regarding Russia and Ukraine, no matter how great it is, The Failing New York Times will still speak badly of it.”

He also took shots at Times journalist Peter Baker, calling him “very biased and untalented,” and mocked Baker’s support for Ukraine regaining all its territory — “including, I guess, Crimea and other ridiculous demands.”

Trump condemned the current violence as “worse than anything since World War II” and slammed Barack Obama for letting Russia annex Crimea “without even a shot fired.” He questioned why Baker never criticized Obama but constantly attacks him instead.

He emphasized, “I’ve had nothing to do with this stupid war, except early on when I sent Ukraine Javelins, while Obama sent them sheets.” Trump labeled the conflict “Sleepy Joe Biden’s War,” insisting it would never have started if he had been president.

On the recent missile attacks on civilian areas, Trump said, “There was no reason for Putin to be firing missiles into cities and towns.” He concluded with, “Too many people are dying!!!”
