Former US president Donald Trump says Russia’s invasion of Ukraine would “never have happened” if he were president.
“China, Russia, Iran and North Korea have formed together as a menacing and destructive coalition,” he said in a press conference on Wednesday.
“If I were your president, it would never have happened – nor would Russia attacking Ukraine have happened, all those lives would be saved, all those beautiful cities would be standing.”
