President Trump on Monday told reporters he is “very angry” about the alleged attack against Russian President Vladimir Putin’s residence by Ukrainian forces, which reportedly launched 91 drones at the presidential residence. 

The incident comes just one day after Trump held talks with the leaders of both countries, and Trump hosted Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky at Mar-a-Lago, where the two held a press conference signaling optimism about an end to the war. Trump had a phone conversation with Putin, which he described as “very productive,” ahead of his meeting with Zelensky.

But Russian officials now say that Zelensky attempted to kill Putin, which Trump confirmed he heard about during a phone call with Putin this morning.

“That’s no good. It’s no good,” Trump told reporters. “It’s one thing to be offensive because they’re offensive. It’s another thing to attack his house,” he continued, noting that he is “very angry about it.”

When pressed by a reporter on the accuracy of the claims, Trump said it’s “possible” that it didn’t actually happen, “but President Putin told me this morning, it did.”

WATCH:

Trump: I don’t like it. It’s not good. I heard about it this morning. You know who told me about it? President Putin told me about it early in the morning. He said he was attacked. That’s no good. It’s no good. Don’t forget, you know, the tomahawks. I stopped the tomahawks. I didn’t want that because we’re talking about, you know, it’s a delicate period of time. This is not the right time.

It’s one thing to be offensive because they’re offensive. It’s another thing to attack his house. It’s not the right time to do any of that. And can’t do it. And I learned about it from President Putin today. I was very angry about it.

Reporter: Don’t you have US intelligence services that monitor that region very closely? Is there any evidence–

Trump: Well, it came out. It came out. Well, we’ll find out. I mean, you’re saying maybe the attack didn’t take place. That’s possible too, I guess. But President Putin told me this morning, it did.

As The Gateway Pundit reported, Ukrainian President Zelensky unexpectedly launched a massive drone strike attack against Putin’s residence in the Novgorod region, Russian officials say.

According to Putin aide Yuri Ushakov, Trump said he was “shocked and outraged” by the attempted strike. Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov described Ukraine’s actions as “a policy of state terrorism” and vowed retaliation.

But Ukraine denied the accusation, with Zelensky calling it “another lie from the Russian Federation.”
