U.S. President Donald Trump's sharp remarks about both Vladimir Putin and Volodymyr Zelenskyy have prompted varied reactions — with the Kremlin attributing his words to emotional overload, and Zelenskyy describing Moscow’s recent actions as a political decision.

U.S. President Donald Trump has sharply criticized Russian President Vladimir Putin, calling him "absolutely crazy" over a wave of devastating airstrikes on Ukraine, and warned that such actions could bring about Russia's downfall. He also rebuked Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, claiming his rhetoric was escalating tensions.

The Kremlin responded to Trump's remarks by suggesting they were emotionally driven. “This is a very crucial moment… associated with the emotional overload of everyone,” said Kremlin spokesperson Dmitry Peskov. Despite the criticism, Peskov thanked Trump for his role in supporting peace talks.


Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy did not directly respond to Trump’s comments but described the recent wave of Russian airstrikes as a political decision by Moscow. Zelenskyy called for stronger international measures to limit Russia’s military capabilities.
