Trump voiced shocking losses of Russia, as well as losses of Ukraine since the beginning of the year

Since the beginning of the current year, Russia has lost more than 112 thousand soldiers in the war with Ukraine, while Ukraine's losses amounted to about 8 thousand military personnel. This was reported by the President of the United States Donald Trump on his page on the social network Truth Social.

As reported by TUT.AZ, the American leader noted that nearly 20 thousand Russian military personnel have died in combat operations this month alone.

"I have just been informed that nearly 20 thousand Russian soldiers have died this month in the war with Ukraine. Since the beginning of the year, Russia has lost 112.5 thousand people. This is too many unnecessary deaths! Ukraine, however, has also suffered greatly. Since January 1, 2025, they have lost about 8 thousand soldiers, and this number does not include their missing in action," Donald Trump stated.

He also emphasized that civilians in Ukraine are becoming victims of the conflict, as Russia continues to launch missile strikes on Kyiv and other populated areas of the country.

"This is a war that should never have happened - this is Joe Biden's war, not Trump's. I am here only to see if I can stop it!" added the US President
