Donald Trump went back to blaming basics Monday to defend Russian President Vladimir Putin, less than a day after Russia’s deadliest attack on Ukraine this year: he’s blaming the leader of the country that got bombed—and Joe Biden!

The war began when Russia invaded Ukraine. But in the Oval Office, President Trump lit into Biden and Zelenskyy and said: "Everybody's to blame."

NATO Secretary-General Mark Rutte said he had visited the southern Ukrainian city of Odesa with President Volodymyr Zelenskiy on Tuesday and declared NATO's support for Ukraine was unwavering. Rutte's visit was a show of solidarity with Kyiv following a Russian missile strike on the northern city of Sumy on Sunday that killed 35 people and wounded more than 100.
