Donald Trump slammed President Joe Biden for his handling of the war between Russia and Ukraine on Saturday night.
Trump said that if he were still in office, Putin wouldn't have started a war. Since the beginning of the conflict, Trump has made similar assertions.
Trump said in a statement on February 24 that the deadly Ukraine situation would never have happened if he were in office.
At the rally, Trump said Biden can end the tragedy without Americans being involved in a war.
He said that if the invasion continues it will lead to another world war.
This could lead to World War III. If you think Putin will stop, it will get worse. We don't have anyone to talk to him because he's not going to accept it.
As he spoke out against the US issuing a no-fly zone over Ukraine, Sen. Marco Rubio warned against plunging the US into a third world war.
The US imposed a series of harsh economic sanctions on Russia after it began its assault on Ukraine.
Biden said last week that there would be a ban on Russian energy imports.
Russia is a major oil producer and its energy resources bring in more than $500 million per day, which makes up half of its government revenue.
Emergency humanitarian and military aid for Ukraine was included in the spending package that the House of Representatives approved on Wednesday. About half the money is for defense and military spending.
