Trump calls Ukraine's renewed refinery strikes "a disgrace"

US President Donald Trump has sharply criticised Ukraine's renewed campaign of strikes on Russian oil refineries, calling it "a disgrace". The remark came after Russia struck Ukrainian energy sites with 39 missiles, according to Euromaidan Press, which covers the war in Ukraine.

Trump called Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy "P.T. Barnum", a reference to the American showman whose name is associated with exaggeration and self-promotion. The president also said that his predecessor, Joe Biden, armed Ukraine for free.

The available source excerpt does not say where or in what setting Trump made the comments, what damage the Russian strike caused, or which refineries Ukraine recently targeted. Those details are not included and have not been added.
