Russia has reportedly shown a restrained reaction to former US President Donald Trump’s recent characterization of its military efforts in Ukraine as a ‘paper tiger’ fighting an ‘aimless war.’ According to BBC Russia editor Steve Rosenberg, Moscow has largely brushed off the provocative comments, appearing unfazed rather than riled.

This development unfolds as Trump has also recently articulated a significant shift in his position on the conflict, suggesting that Kyiv possesses the capability to reclaim all of Ukraine, provided it receives robust support from NATO and European allies. The Kremlin’s measured response to the ‘paper tiger’ remark highlights ongoing diplomatic exchanges and rhetorical sparring surrounding the prolonged conflict.
