"I am appalled to learn about the shooting of former U.S. President Donald Trump at his rally in Pennsylvania." Such violence is unjustifiable and has no place anywhere in the world. Violence should never prevail," the Ukrainian leader wrote on platform X.

The President of Ukraine conveyed that he was relieved to learn that Donald Trump is now safe and wished him a speedy recovery. He also offered condolences to the relatives of a rally participant who died in the attack.

"I extend my wishes for strength to everyone who is horrified by this event. I wish America emerges stronger from this." the president noted.

Former U.S. President Donald Trump was shot in the ear on Saturday during a campaign rally in Butler, Pennsylvania. Two people died, including the assailant, and two others were seriously injured. The health condition of the Republican candidate is good.

Donald Trump was injured in the ear, fell to the ground, and was covered by Secret Service agents. The politician was taken to a hospital but was discharged shortly afterward.

"There’s no place for this kind of violence in America. We must unite as one nation to condemn it," commented Joe Biden.
