Donald Trump made clear that his personal grudge with Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelensky hasn’t abated during a phone interview with NBC News.
Speaking with Meet the Press anchor Kristen Welker on Saturday, the president knocked Zelensky for offering assistance to the U.S. and Middle Eastern countries, the latter of which the Ukrainian president said on Friday were seeking his aid in sharing drone detection technology.
The “last person we need help from is Zelensky,” Trump told Welker.
Ukraine is winning because they found cheaper drone defenses than drones…
Were burning thru our sophisticated interceptors because we’re wasting them on drones 1/100th the prices.
Iran just has to keep pumping out the same drones they’ve been sending to Russia.
Like, Ukraine is literally the one government that knows how to win this kind of war.

The only person who knows how to do anything in the US is Donald Trump, if anyone has the audacity to know better than him they will be demoted, fired or abducted by ICE.
Haaaaaaang on.
Are you saykng that Iran has been supplying Russia with drones, and now they’ll be keeping them to use against the USA, for the explicit purpose of being destroyed?
So, wouldn’t this mean Russia loses their supply? So wouldn’t that mean it’s actually in Zelenskyys best interest to NOT help the USA?
If USA ends their war quickly, Iran starts supplying Russia again with drones. But until that happens, wouldn’t Ukraine have an easier time in their own war?
Russia is getting a huge advantage from the Iran-US war. Trump, as a Russian asset, had the excuse he needed to lift sanctions on Russian oil.
Ukraine needs to cut off Russian oil, which means stopping the Iran threat.
Yes, Russia will lose a part of their supply.
They will also gain a lot of money they can use to buy things from other places.
This was my first take too, but I think that was mostly true in the first years when the rot in the russian military was more prevalent. They have been steadily cleaning up and ramping up production across their MIC and they also have local Shahed production now set up by Iranian engineers afaik.
That means that the main limits on Russias ability to get drones is now primarily financial, rather than production volume. So while they lost some of their effective production, they have made so much money out of this, that even if it ends today, their biggest challenge, their economy, is hugely improved. If it continues, they will be able to afford even more production.
With the effectiveness of the Shaheds, I wouldn’t be surprised if China is also pumping them out and Russia can buy them there. If NATO dumped a bunch of money into reverse engineering and setting up production, Iranian allies sure as hell should have.
So on , russia produce their own drones in Russia !
Ukraine unfortunately is not winning and is in serious trouble.
For a relatively small nation like Ukraine, still standing against the full might of Russian agression after four years, is winning it.
You should say that louder for the people in Moscow without internet.
“Serious trouble” is holding the world’s supposed second most powerful military to a gain of only 0.8% of Ukraine’s territory after the initial invasion?
“Serious trouble” is a 27:1 casualty ratio in Ukraine’s favor, with over 1.2 million dead or wounded on Russia’s side?
If you believe that, I’ve got a bridge over the Volga to sell you.
“The areas which were controlled by Russia at the time of the declaration of annexation amount to more than 90000 km²”.
Internationally recognized area of Ukraine is 603628 km². Now learn to do the math, because “0.8%” is beyond delusional. The above figure grew since the declaration, too.
This is hilariously out of touch.
Do you think Russia or Ukraine will give real number? Both side always gives fake numbers
Russia uses Iranian drones…
The price just skyrocketed and supply might go to zero if Iran uses all they can make
Russia uses Iranian design, but produce locally. Some reports that Russia is now providing Iran with Iranian type drones build in Russia.
How did you come to that assessment, if you don’t mind my asking?
It isn’t losing either and it doesn’t look that good for Russia on the battlefield right now.
You are looking locally, not globally.
