Trump Calls Putin 'Completely Crazy' Over Ukraine War

Trump Condemns Putin's Actions in Ukraine: 'Completely Crazy' May 27, 2025 - In a surprise statement given to reporters, former US President Donald Trump strongly condemned Vladimir Putin's actions in Ukraine. Trump described Putin's actions as "completely crazy," citing the significant loss of innocent lives as a result of missile and drone strikes on Ukrainian cities. The statement was given shortly after Trump's arrival at an airport, where he was filmed speaking directly to reporters. "He is needlessly killing a lot of people," Trump stated, expressing his disapproval of Putin's actions. "I've always had a good relationship with him, but something has happened to him." Trump's comments were further reinforced in a subsequent post on his social media account, where he reiterated his assessment of Putin's actions and warned of the potential for the war to lead to the downfall of Russia. The video also contains footage of the devastation in Ukraine, showing the destruction caused by the recent barrage of missiles and drones. This visual evidence underscores the gravity of the situation and provides a stark contrast to Trump's words. The images serve as a powerful reminder of the human cost of the conflict. Trump's unexpected criticism of Putin adds a new dimension to the ongoing international discussion surrounding the war in Ukraine. His remarks, while critical of Putin, also offer a cautionary note about the potential consequences of Putin's actions for Russia itself.
