Pastor Mark Burns, who is part of President Trump's inner circle and named TIME magazine's "Donald Trump's Top Pastor," says US President Donald Trump's statements on the readiness to impose sanctions against Russia reflect his firm resolve to protect Ukraine's sovereignty and achieve peace and justice in the country.
"The President's (Trump's - ed.) recent statements regarding Ukraine demonstrate his unwavering commitment to peace and justice in your great nation. His willingness to impose economic sanctions on Russian oil, including a 25% tariff on all Russian oil imports, shows his determination to protect Ukraine's sovereignty and bring an end to the bloodshed," said Burns.
The Pastor also emphasized the importance of recent peace talks and agreements for a partial ceasefire at sea and on energy facilities.
"The President's (Trump's - ed.) planned discussions with President Putin this week demonstrate his commitment to finding peaceful solutions to the conflict. As a day one supporter of President Trump, I can attest that President Trump approaches these negotiations with both strength and compassion, always mindful of the impact on innocent lives," he stressed.
