Leaked Trump Audio Details Threats to Putin, Xi

News summary

Leaked audio from 2024 fundraising events reveals President Donald Trump claimed he threatened Russian President Vladimir Putin with bombing Moscow if Russia invaded Ukraine, and issued a similar warning to Chinese President Xi Jinping about Taiwan. These remarks, detailed in the book '2024' by journalists Josh Dawsey, Tyler Pager, and Isaac Arnsdorf, were aired by CNN and have not been publicly addressed by Trump’s campaign. Trump also asserted that the conflicts in Ukraine and Gaza would not have occurred if he were president and has grown more critical of Putin while advocating for increased U.S. support to Ukraine. The authenticity and timing of the alleged conversations remain unclear, intensifying scrutiny of Trump’s foreign policy stance. The White House and Pentagon responded by reaffirming support for Ukraine amid ongoing Russian attacks and noting a pause in military aid shipments. These disclosures have fueled debate over Trump’s rhetoric and crisis management approach.
