Key Trump allies have condemned the Ukrainian drone strikes on Russian nuclear bombers, warning the attacks risked escalating the conflict at a time when Washington is trying to keep both sides at the negotiating table.

Former Trump advisor Steve Bannon:

We’re being dragged into a potential Third World War that would eclipse the first two. And this is happening in the most egregious way every single day. The White House claims they were unaware of the Ukrainians’ plans. They just went ahead and attacked Russia’s nuclear triad—something even General Curtis LeMay wouldn’t have dared to do.

They disabled 40% of their strategic bombers—41 out of 100. The attack was bold, audacious, all of that… but this is unacceptable. A country we fund and make deals with is now pulling us into its war. They think they can strike Russian territory and drag us into a conflict with Russia. We’re being dragged into a war that could metastasize.

    Well I should say! Ukraine should just ensure peace by surrendering and becoming part of Russia.

    That’s what the current administration is after, they just won’t admit it.
