“Trump is objectively a Soviet or Russian agent”: Portuguese president hits out at US leader

According to the report, the President of Portugal, Marcelo Rebelo de Sousa, made a harsh statement about US President Donald Trump. In his opinion, the American leader is "objectively a Soviet or Russian agent."The supreme leader of the world's largest superpower is objectively a Soviet or Russian asset," said de Sousa during a speech in Castelo de Vide. Trump's efforts to present himself as the main mediator in reconciling Ukraine and Russia did not make a good impression on the Portuguese president. De Sousa noted that Trump's attempts to "settle" the war were not beneficial for Ukraine." Objectively, the new US leadership strategically contributed to Russia," he added. As an example, de Sousa reminded that "every day" there are new threats from the US to impose sanctions on the Kremlin. However, in reality, none of Trump's promises to strengthen sanctions had been fulfilled. According to the Portuguese leader, Trump tries to play the role of an "arbiter," but at the same time wants to negotiate "only with one side." Kyiv and its European allies are literally forced to pressure Washington to also take part in the negotiations. Sousa added that Europe downplayed "the importance of Trump and Trumpism" and also did not believe that the balance of power in the White House and US policy could change so drastically after Trump came to power.

Meanwhile, the media writes that US President Donald Trump is not satisfied with the demands of Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy and Europe for ending the war. He wants peace at any cost. In recent days, Trump has expressed in private conversations his frustration that his loud diplomatic efforts have not brought results, but he blames not Russia and Russian President Vladimir Putin. Sousa's reaction came after Trump's repeated attempts to position himself as the primary mediator in bringing Ukraine and Russia together. Trump's efforts to settle the conflict, according to Sousa, have not actually helped Ukraine. Instead, he suggested, the 79-year-old's actions could weaken Ukraine's position or may even indirectly favour Russia, according to Ukrainian National News.

I can't blame the Portuguese President accusing Trump as a Russian agent. Nothing happens to the proposals of Trump to convince Putin to accept the peace deal with Zelenskyy.
