“Trump called on the EU to allocate more money to Ukraine in order to save money,” Pushkov wrote.

He noted that the EU countries "already bear the lion's share of losses from sanctions (a total of $ 80-100 billion), while the United States lost almost nothing from them."

“This is on the one hand. And on the other hand, Trump’s appeal speaks of Ukraine’s low position in the US leader’s priority system, ”the senator added.

Earlier, trump said that the EU should allocate more funds to support Ukraine.
