Former President Donald Trump sends shockwaves through diplomatic circles this week after sharply rebuking Russian President Vladimir Putin, calling him "absolutely crazy" and accusing him of "needlessly killing a lot of people in Ukraine." Trump's remarks, made during a public interview, mark a significant departure from his previously softer tone on the Kremlin leader and have drawn immediate responses from both Russia and Ukraine.
Speaking candidly, Trump also says he would now consider imposing sanctions against Moscow, a notable shift from his earlier rhetoric during and after his presidency. . .
