Former US President Donald TrumpWASHINGTON, Mar 20Former US President Donald Trump accused his successor Joe Biden of being unable to stop the bloodshed in Ukraine due to fear of Russia's nuclear potential. «It's a disaster what's happening there… We need to stop this madness,» he said, speaking at a rally of his supporters in Florida. «Biden says:» We should not attack, this is a nuclear power. We shouldn't do this. «… He's so afraid, so afraid.» In addition, Trump said that if he were president, there would be no conflict in Ukraine. «If I were your president, this would never have happened … We talked a lot, and he (Russian President Vladimir Putin) would never have done it. He saw the weakness (of Washington), saw things that he had never seen in our country,» the ex-president said.Trump said that the Russian special operation came as a surprise to him. He took credit for the start of arms supplies to Ukraine. “I am the one who sent them Javelins a very long time ago (Javelin anti-tank missile systems — ed.) … I sent hundreds and hundreds of Javelins to them, while Obama and Biden (the former president and vice president of the United States, respectively — ed.) sent them blankets,» Trump said.
