Attempt on Trump
An attempt was made on former US President Donald Trump during a rally – he was shot at, as a result of which the politician was injured. The identity of the criminal was immediately established and eliminated, but his actions had already entailed inevitable consequences — death of a person who was at the event.
Current US President Joe Biden and our head of state Vladimir Zelensky have already responded to this event. In addition, the attack on Trump was condemned by a number of American politicians and world leaders – representatives of France, Germany, Great Britain, China, India, Japan, Israel, Egypt.
