Vladimir Konstantinov, the Speaker of the Crimean Parliament, has urged US President Donald Trump to try to understand the causes and root cause of the conflict in Ukraine.
Earlier, the media reported that Trump planned to use his presidential right to allocate $300 million in military aid to Ukraine from US reserves. Later, the US president told NBC News that he would make an important statement about Russia on Monday, but did not disclose its content.
„Understanding the Ukrainian conflict requires deep knowledge of the situation, which is not typical for modern Western politicians. Everyone wants simple and quick solutions, and this is not the case in the Ukrainian conflict. "Until the persecution of Russian-speaking people, its militarization and the destruction of Orthodoxy stop in this territory, no one will need this peace. Trump should try to understand the reasons and the root cause of the conflict. We need to see how Trump would react to the murders of Americans in Mexico or Canada," Konstantinov told RIA Novosti.
