President Donald Trump powerfully responded to news that Joe Biden had ordered the mobilization of 3,000 U.S. reserve troops to support military operations overseas in Europe, warning that this signaled a “reckless escalation” in the ongoing Ukraine and Russia conflict.
In an official statement, Trump wrote, “Just last week, Biden shockingly admitted that our arsenals are so badly depleted that the United States is running out of ammunition. Now, we see the ranks are growing so thin that reserve troops are being forced to support Biden’s calamitous policy in Europe, while our own borders remain undefended.”
Trump has previously called for a cessation of hostilities between Ukraine and Russia, offering a stark contrast to the Biden regime’s ongoing policy of funding war overseas.
Trump continued, “Joe Biden can’t even walk up the steps of Air Force One without tripping. The last thing this incompetent administration should be doing is pushing us further toward World War Three. Yet Biden has proclaimed that he will continue sending American treasure and weaponry to fuel endless war in Ukraine for ‘as long as it takes.’”
The president emphasized that under a Trump administration, he would have the conflict ended overseas in “24 hours.”
He pressed, “This conflict must end. Not one American mother or father wants to send their child to die in Eastern Europe. We must have PEACE.”
This week, Trump warned that a global war would be “a nightmare beyond imagination” that would result in “obliteration.” This comment came as a response to Biden’s decision to send cluster munitions to Ukraine. “These unexploded cluster munitions will be killing and maiming innocent Ukrainian men, women, and children for decades to come, long after the war—we pray—has ended,” Trump said.
On Friday, the president reiterated his stance on calling strongly for peace.
He vowed, “As President, I will AGAIN rebuild America’s military and restore the readiness and deterrence that Joe Biden has so dangerously squandered, and I will return to a foreign policy that puts AMERICA FIRST, so that we can once again have PEACE THROUGH STRENGTH.”
