Former US President Donald Trump promised to demand Europe to reimburse the expenses spent by the United States of America (USA) on military aid to Ukraine if he wins the elections.

"I will ask Europe to reimburse us for the cost of replenishing the stocks of weapons that were sent to Ukraine. They should do it now, but Joe Biden is so weak, they don't respect him," Trump said.

He pointed out that the United States spent about $200 billion on aid to Ukraine, while Europe spent only a small part of that amount.

Trump also considered that the current US administration has brought the army to a dangerous situation, when the US forces lack volunteers, and Biden himself talks about the lack of weapons.

"A corrupt and incompetent leader is dragging the country into World War III," Trump said.

Under his leadership, he promised, the Pentagon would have "record funding."
