US President Donald Trump criticized the recent Russian night attacks on Kiev, which included the use of rockets and running planes, and called on his Russian counterpart, Vladimir Putin, to stop these actions.

US President Donald Trump has criticized Russian President Vladimir Putin on Thursday, after reports of Russia's bombing of missiles and drones, the Ukrainian capital at night, which led to 8 dead ..

He added: “I am not happy with Russian strikes on Kiev. It is not necessary, and a very bad timing.”

Trump added: "Vladimir stopped! 5 thousand soldiers are killed weekly. Let's complete the peace agreement.

Trump's comments come one day after his criticism of Ukrainian President Folodimir Zellinski, and his accusation of obstructing peace talks to end the war.

Trump considered that Russia's annexation of the Crimea is "a matter of discussion," noting that Ukraine lost it years ago, describing the statements of his Ukrainian counterpart that his country would not recognize Russia's occupation of this region as "very harmful to peace negotiations with Russia."

The Kremlin did not comment on Trump's statements about Russian raids on Kiev

When the Kremlin spokesman, Dmitry Peskov, was asked about Russian strikes on Kiev at a press conference earlier on Thursday, Peskov said that Russia continues to strike "military targets and army -related targets."

Russian raids are the strongest since last summer.

Zellinski criticizes the American position, and said during his visit to South Africa that "Russia is pressing the United States through raids on Kiev."

He added: “I do not see any strong pressure on Russia or new sanctions against the background of Russian aggression.”

Efforts to stop the Russian war on Ukraine are witnessing great complications. Trump is pressing for an agreement as soon as possible. The White House has witnessed a historical counseling between Trump and his deputy on the one hand and the Ukrainian president on the other hand.

Attention is also directed to the Ukrainian mineral agreement between Washington and Kiev, while the European Union works to provide more support to Ukraine through many frameworks, from which the "Alliance of those wishing" recently emerged with Ukraine's support
