Vladimir Putin has said that he will meet Donald Trump after praising conversations between the Russian and American officers as a place 'without bias or judgment'.
The Russian dictator said he rated the conversations in Saudi Aarabia 'very' and described them as a 'first step' to restore relations with Washington.
“I was informed (during the conversations). I rate them high, there is a result, “said Putin in a drone factory in Saint Petersburg, and added:” In my opinion we took the first step to restore the work in different areas of mutual interests. “
Putin added that Trump had received 'objective information' after Volodyymyr Zensky accused the American president of 'Living in A Desininformation Space' created by Moscow.
This morning the Ukrainian president said Trump's claims that the US has given Ukraine $ 500 billion, and called the suggestion that Kyiv will pay this back with a mineral exploration agreement 'no serious conversation'.
“Look, we all want a victory, and we want Trump to win, and we want Ukraine to win, we all succeed,” he said. “But there is nothing clear here … I protect Ukraine. I can't sell it away. I can't sell our state. '
Defense Secretary John Healey said yesterday that it was 'only the US who can give the deterrent' to Russian President Vladimir Putin (photo) 'that will prevent him again'
