Former US President Donald Trump said if he was president, he would resolve the conflict within 24 hours. "Russians and Ukrainians, I want them to stop dying."
"And I’ll have that done in 24 hours."
"I don’t think in terms of winning and losing. I think in terms of getting it settled so we stop killing all these people," he said during a CNN town hall program.
Trump explained that he would meet with Russian President Vladimir Putin and his Ukrainian counterpart Vladimir Zelensky to end the conflict in Ukraine.
He added that he considered Putin to be very smart. However, in the former US president’s opinion, "Putin made a mistake" by launching the special military operation.
Trump also pointed out that it was not the time to consider the Russian president a war criminal. "If you say he’s [Putin] a war criminal, it’s going to be a lot tougher to make a deal to make this thing stopped," Trump said.
He also added that it was something that "should be discussed later."
