US President Donald Trump said Russian dictator Volodymyr Putin was able to keep a large -scale war against Ukraine through income from oil sales. According to him, the high prices for raw materials - almost $ 100 per barrel - gave the Kremlin a resource to finance hostilities.
"It brought huge income, but now prices have fallen, and the war has become less profitable for Russia ," Trump said.
He also called for a speedy resolution of the conflict, emphasizing its scale and consequences: “There is a real slaughterhouse. The horrible slaughterhouse, which is ongoing .
Earlier, Trump repeatedly stated that in the event of a victory in the election he would be able to stop the war in Ukraine "in 24 hours", but did not provide a specific settlement plan.
