into Russia fully lined up with Moscows position.Trump said in an interview published Thursday that he disagreed very vehemently with
Ukraines use of ATACMS missiles to strike Russian territory.The remarks were invited by the Kremlin, which on Friday said it had introduced
a massive aerial attack on Ukraines energy grid as a reaction to Kyiv striking an airfield with United States -supplied weapons this week

combating in 24 hours, and speculation over a possible ceasefire is growing ahead of his inauguration in January.But the Kremlin stated
