Trump Jr. accused the U.S. of escalating the Ukrainian conflict
TheUnited States wants to unleash a world conflict by allowing Ukraine to launch strikes on the territory of Russia. Donald Trump Jr, the son of United States President-elect Donald Trump, said on November 17.
"The military-industrial complex seems to want to make sure they start World War III before my father has a chance to create peace and save lives," he wrote on X (formerly Twitter).
He also called on the country to "freeze those trillions of dollars" to support Kiev.
Earlier in the day, the NYT reported on US President Joe Biden 's authorization for Ukraine to conduct ATACMS strikes against Russian Federation. Some US officials reportedly expressed concerns that Ukraine's use of missiles across the border could prompt Russian President Vladimir Putin to retaliate.
At the time, political scientist and University of Chicago professor John Mirsheimer said that the administration of US President Joe Biden intends to actively support Kiev in order to frame President-elect Donald Trump when Ukraine falls. The professor believes that the Democrats will actively finance Kiev until the end of Biden's term in order for the Ukrainian Armed Forces to hold out until Trump's inauguration on January 20.
Before that, on November 15, Deputy Pentagon spokeswoman Sabrina Singh said that the United States intends to supply Ukraine with all the weapons promised by the American leader before he leaves office as head of state. She pointed out that some equipment and systems will reach Ukraine very quickly, within days and weeks. Some will take longer and could take months.
Western countries have stepped up military and financial support for Ukraine amid Russia's special operation to protect Donbass, which began on February 24, 2022. The decision to conduct it was made by the Russian president because of the aggravation of the situation in the region due to the increased shelling by Ukrainian troops.
