Support from Vitkoff
Against the backdrop of the scandal surrounding the leaked transcript of a conversation between Witkoff and Yuriy Ushakov, an aide to Russian dictator Vladimir Putin, Trump Jr. lashed out at both the media and American politicians who had harshly criticized Trump's special envoy.
"It seems that these media outlets and idiots from the 'deep state' have never succeeded in negotiations in the real world. It is quite obvious that almost all of Witkoff's critics want any peace agreement in Ukraine to fail so that they can continue this war indefinitely. Enough is enough!" he wrote.
