Former President Trump issued a video message Wednesday urging an end to the war in Ukraine before it escalates to a nuclear war.
“The situation in Ukraine is very dangerous, explosive, and escalating by the day. Joe Biden’s weakness and incompetence has brought us to the brink of nuclear war,” Trump said.
The United States and Germany announced last week that they will send tanks to Ukraine.
This is the first stage of a coordinated effort by the West to provide dozens of heavy weapons to help Kyiv break combat stalemates as Russia’s invasion enters its 12th month.

Biden said the U.S. will send 31 M1 Abrams tanks, reversing months of persistent arguments by Washington that they were too difficult for Ukrainian troops to operate and maintain.
The U.S. decision follows Germany’s agreement to send 14 Leopard 2 A6 tanks from its own stocks. Germany had said the Leopards would not be sent unless the U.S. put its Abrams on the table, not wanting to incur Russia’s wrath without the U.S. making a similar commitment.
“Biden is now sending tanks to Ukraine despite saying last year that sending tanks to Ukraine would start World War 3,” Trump said in a statement.
President Trump said, “It’s far past the time for all parties involved to pursue a peaceful end to the war in Ukraine before this already horrific catastrophe spirals out of control and ends up leading indeed to World War 3.”
