President Donald Trump faced online criticism over his comments on Russia, Ukraine and the ceasefire. He claimed Russian President Vladimir Putin was more eager for a peace deal in Ukraine than Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, even though both governments denied agreeing to the ceasefire he described.
The remarks prompted social media users to accuse Trump of being 'drunk on power', while others described his comments as 'deranged'. The exchange also raised questions about his approach to negotiations, especially after a reporter asked how he planned to secure Putin's compliance while Russian attacks on Ukraine continued.
