Former US president Donald Trump called Volodymyr Zelensky a 'man who refuses to make a deal', during a rally in North Carolina on Wednesday.
"It didn't need to happen. Those buildings are down. Those cities are gone. They're gone, and we continue to give billions of dollars to a man who refuses to make a deal, Zelensky," he claimed.
"A deal could have been made. There wouldn't have been one person that died, and there wouldn't have been one golden tower laying shattered on its side. A deal could have been made if we had a competent president, instead of a president that egged it all on. And Biden and Kamala allowed this to happen by feeding Zelensky, money and munitions like no country has ever seen before," he continued.
"I think it's something we have to have a quick discussion about, because the President of Ukraine is in our country and he's making little nasty aspersions towards your favourite president - me," he said. Earlier Zelensky gave a media interview saying that Trump ""doesn't really know how to stop the war."
Trump also commented on an alleged Iranian plot to assassinate him, after his campaign said US intelligence officials had briefing the former president on a suspected attack, believed to be unrelated to the two previous ones.
"If I were the president, I would inform the threatening country, in this case Iran, that if you do anything to harm this person, we are going to blow your largest cities, and the country itself to smithereens. We're going to blow it to smithereens, you cant do that," he said. Tehran has strongly denied plotting to kill the former president.
