Trump: Putin Seeks to Meet on Ukraine Conflict as Soon as Possible

Forex - Donald Trump stated that Russian President Vladimir Putin expressed a desire to discuss the war with Ukraine. In his speech at the Turning Point America Fest conference, Trump said, "President Putin told me he wants to talk to me as soon as possible. We must wait for this, but we need to end this war. This war is terrible, terrible."

Trump, who will return to the White House in January, previously claimed during his election campaign that he could end the war "within 24 hours" if elected. Trump recently criticized President Joe Biden's policy shift allowing Ukraine to use U.S.-supplied weapons to attack Russian territory. The former president also stated that Ukraine would "likely" receive less military assistance when he takes office again.
