Donald Trump has accused the Biden administration of creating international crises, citing the war in Ukraine and the attack on Israel. He claims that these conflicts would not have happened under his presidency.

Donald Trump at the Republican Party convention devoted part of his speech to foreign policy issues. The former US president accused the current administration of creating "international crises," which he included "a terrible war with Russia and Ukraine that would never have happened if I had been president, and a war caused by an attack on Israel that would never have happened if I had been president", writes UNN with reference to "Voice of America".

"Under President Bush, Russia invaded Georgia. Under President Obama, Russia seized Crimea. Under the current administration, Russia is seeking to take over all of Ukraine. Under President Trump, Russia has taken nothing. Look at the attack on Israel. Look at what is happening to Ukraine. Cities have been bombed. How can people live like that? Buildings are being leveled," Trump said.

He emphasized that this "began with the disastrous withdrawal of troops from Afghanistan, the worst humiliation in the history of our country.

"Emboldened by that catastrophe, Russia invaded Ukraine, they saw this group of people who were incompetent," Trump said. In his speech, he also added that the planet is on the brink of World War III.

According to New York Times observers, this mention is an attempt to emphasize that conflicts and crises have increased in Europe, the Middle East, and Asia under Biden.

Trump also recalled his administration's fight against the Islamic State, as well as his talks with North Korean leader Kim Jong-un, saying that "it's good to get along with someone who has a lot of nuclear weapons.

In his speech, he also mentioned Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban, calling him a "tough leader." Last week, the former US president and the Hungarian prime minister met at Mar-a-Lago, Trump's Florida residence.

Trump's speech, which closed the Republican Party convention, lasted more than an hour. According to CNN, after the assassination attempt, Trump was directly involved in rewriting it.

According to Reuters, after the speech, all Republicans now "seem to be completely under his influence.
