Former Republican New Jersey Governor Chris Christie has condemned Donald Trump for his comments praising Vladimir Putin at the start of the Ukraine invasion.
The former president said the Russian leader was “genius" and "savvy" on the eve of the Russian invasion of Ukraine. “He used the word ‘independent’ and ‘we’re gonna go out and we’re gonna go in and we’re gonna help keep peace.’ You gotta say that’s pretty savvy,” said Mr Trump during an interview for the conservative radio programme The Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show.
