TRUMP ON BIDEN SANCTIONS: ‘Weak and Insignificant,’ ‘Putin Getting What He Wanted’

Former President Donald Trump released a statement through his Save America PAC on the current crisis in Eastern Europe. Trump says Biden’s sanctions are “weak” and “insignificant.”

“If properly handled, there was absolutely no reason that the situation currently happening in Ukraine should have happened at all. I know Vladimir Putin very well, and he would have never done during the Trump Administration what he is doing now, no way! Russia has become very very rich during the Biden Administration, with oil prices doubling and soon to be tripling and quadrupling.”

“The weak sanctions are insignificant relative to taking over a country and a massive piece of strategically located land. Now it has begun, oil prices are going higher and higher, and Putin is not only getting what he always wanted, but getting, because of the oil and gas surge, richer and richer. The U.S. was energy independent under the Trump Administration, an independence that we had never obtained before, and oil prices would have remained low. Now, what a mess our Country is in!”
