Donald Trump blames the US and its leadership for the invasion of Ukraine.
Trump accused the US of taunting Putin with dumb rhetoric.
If he was still president, Trump said the war wouldn't have happened.
Newsweek was the first to report that Donald Trump blamed the US for the invasion of Ukraine by Russia.
During an interview on Saturday morning on Real America's Voice, the former president accused the US and its leadership of goingading Putin into a failed invasion of Ukraine.
If you look at it, our country and our leadership taunted Putin. They're almost forcing him to go in with what they're telling him. It was dumb.
There were no examples of how the US or President Biden "taunted" Putin.

The former president said in the interview that the war between Russia and Ukraine would not have happened if he had won the election.
Trump claimed that Russia andUkraine wouldn't fight. It doesn't mean they would love each other, but there's no way they would fight and Putin wouldn't have gone in.
Trump made a baseless claim that Putin wouldn't have invaded if he'd still been in power. He said he had a good relationship with the Russian leader.
I had a good relationship with Putin." I was able to get along with him. He seemed to like me. Trump said he liked him during an appearance on the show. He's a tough cookie, has a lot of pride, and he loves his country.
The justification for invading was described by Trump as "genius".
