Trump said that the conflict should never have happened and that it could cause a world war.

If Trump were still in the Oval Office, the conflict wouldn't have happened, he said on Truth Social.

He said that this could be World War III.

In an address to the Russian people on Wednesday, Putin said that he was calling up 300,000 reserve soldiers to help his troops in Ukraine. He threatened to use Russia's nuclear weapons on the West.

This is not a lie. Putin said that those trying to blackmail us with nuclear weapons should know that the weathervane can point towards them.

Since the beginning of the invasion of Ukraine, the Russian president has made threats about using nuclear weapons.

John Kirby told ABC's "Good Morning America" that the US was taking Putin's threat seriously.

A counteroffensive by the Ukrainians has taken control of thousands of square kilometers.
