Trump had a stern warning.
Washington, D.C. – President Donald J. Trump is doubling down on his call for peace as violence continues to escalate in Ukraine. In a powerful statement on Truth Social, President Trump urged Russian President Vladimir Putin to “STOP” the strikes on Kyiv and commit to a deal that could end the devastating war.
“I am very unhappy with Russia’s attack on Kyiv. Very unnecessary, and very bad timing. Putin, STOP! Over 5,000 troops a week are dying. Let’s achieve the peace deal,” Trump posted.
Deadly Attack Raises Stakes for Peace
Thursday’s assault on Ukraine’s capital left at least 10 civilians dead and nearly 90 others wounded, including women and children, according to Ukrainian authorities. The shocking loss of life reinforces the urgency of President Trump’s demand for immediate action.
Trump Administration: Leading the Push for Peace
President Trump has made it clear: the time for endless war is over. On Easter Sunday, he expressed hope that a Russia–Ukraine peace agreement could be finalized within days, promising that once peace is achieved, both nations could “start to do big business with the United States of America.”
In another statement on April 11, Trump criticized the continued bloodshed, calling the war “senseless” and urging both sides to move forward:
“Too many people are dying. It’s time to end this.”
Vice President JD Vance Issues Firm Ultimatum
Vice President JD Vance made headlines on Wednesday when he told reporters that the U.S. has made a clear and final peace proposal. The message to both Russia and Ukraine? Say yes—or America walks away.
“We’ve issued an explicit proposal. If they don’t accept it, we’re done. We’ve exhausted every diplomatic option,” said Vance.
Secretary of State Marco Rubio Backs Firm U.S. Stance
Last Friday, Secretary of State Marco Rubio echoed Vance’s position, signaling that President Trump is ready to withdraw from negotiations if progress stalls:
“We’ve reached the point where the President may say, ‘Enough is enough.’”
Trump Criticizes Zelenskyy’s ‘Inflammatory’ Remarks
President Trump also took aim at Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, whose refusal to acknowledge Russia’s control of Crimea—seized in 2014—was branded “very harmful” to the peace process.
“That’s not even up for discussion,” Trump said, emphasizing the need to stay focused on realistic solutions.
In a recent post, Trump referred to Zelenskyy as “the man with no cards to play”, citing Ukraine’s weak position in the current talks.
America First: Strong Leadership, Real Results
As the war drags on, President Trump’s “peace through strength” doctrine is proving to be the most effective strategy. Unlike weak globalist policies of the past, Trump’s America-First diplomacy aims to end the bloodshed, protect innocent lives, and bring stability to the region—without sacrificing U.S. interests.
