Russia on Wednesday rejected US President Donald Trump’s allegation that Russian President Vladimir Putin and North Korean leader Kim Jong Un were “conspiring” against the United States alongside China’s Xi Jinping during a massive military parade in Beijing. The Kremlin clarified that Putin was not engaged in any conspiracy and suggested that Trump may have been speaking "ironically."
Earlier, Trump said he was “very disappointed” with Putin and accused the three leaders of conspiring against Washington.
In a Truth Social post, Trump argued that Americans had paid a heavy price to secure China’s freedom during World War II. “The big question to be answered is whether or not President Xi of China will mention the massive amount of support and ‘blood’ that The United States of America gave to China in order to help it to secure its FREEDOM from a very unfriendly foreign invader. Many Americans died in China’s quest for Victory and Glory,” Trump wrote.
“I hope that they are rightfully Honored and Remembered for their Bravery and Sacrifice! May President Xi and the wonderful people of China have a great and lasting day of celebration,” he added. Turning sharply critical, Trump concluded: “Please give my warmest regards to Vladimir Putin, and Kim Jong Un, as you conspire against The United States of America. PRESIDENT DONALD J. TRUMP.”
Asked by Russian state television about Trump’s remarks, Kremlin foreign policy aide Yuri Ushakov dismissed the allegation. "I would like to say that no one has been conspiring, no one has been plotting anything, no conspiracies," Ushakov said. He added, "Trump may have been being ironic.""No one even had such a thought — none of these three leaders had such a thought," he continued.
"I can say that everyone understands the role played by the United States, the current administration of President Trump and President Trump personally in the current international situation," Ushakov added.
The comments came as Xi Jinping told a crowd of more than 50,000 that the world faces a choice between “peace or war” at the parade in Beijing, where he was flanked by Putin and Kim in an unprecedented show of force.
