Speaking about the causes of the war, he said that the possibility of Ukraine joining NATO was “a big part of the problem for Russia for many, many years.”
“And somewhere around this time, Biden said: ‘No, they (Ukrainians. – Ed.) should be able to join NATO.’ Well, then in Russia, some people appear on the doorstep. And I can understand their feelings on this issue.” Trump added.
Asked by a journalist to explain when exactly the USA denied the possibility of Ukraine joining NATO, the president-elect said: “I believe that it was always clear.”
“Actually, I think they had a deal and then Biden broke it. They had a deal that would have satisfied Ukraine and everybody else, but Biden said, ‘No, you should be able to join NATO,'” he said. .
Trump has previously said that Joe Biden should not have promised Ukraine membership in the Alliance, because Russia allegedly unleashed a full-scale war because of it.
Earlier, he assured that he “will not leave Ukraine” in his attempts to settle the Russian-Ukrainian war.
