  • Russia's ambassador to the UN flatly disagreed with Trump's claims he could end the Ukraine war in a day.
  • Vassily Nebenzia blamed Ukraine's Western allies for failed cease-fire talks.
  • Trump has repeatedly said that he could quickly bring about the end of the war.

It's one of former President Donald Trump's most regular claims on the campaign trail: give him the chance, and he'd make sure Russia's war in Ukraine was over in just a day.

Russia clearly disagrees.

"The Ukrainian crisis cannot be solved in one day," Russia's ambassador to the UN, Vassily Nebenzia, said when asked about the claim on Monday.
