US Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump said that he "gets along very well with Russian ruler Vladimir Putin".
As reported by The Telegraph, speaking at a town hall event in the city of Oaks, eastern Pennsylvania, Trump confirmed his good relations with the Russian leader and said that the invasion of Ukraine would never have happened during his presidency.
"I get along very well with Putin," he told his supporters.
Speaking about Putin's decision to invade, he said:
"It was the pupil of his eye, he talked about it, but I said he would not do it."
Trump is convinced that Putin decided to do this only because of the current President Joe Biden. The former US president said he also had a good relationship with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky and said he would end the war in Eastern Europe before he was elected president.
"Biden has done nothing about it - he hasn't even spoken to Putin in over a year. This is a war that needs to end, and I'm going to end that war... I'm going to try to end that war as president-elect. I want people to stop dying, that's all," he said.
