President Donald Trump said he would meet with Russian President Vladimir Putin and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenksyy in the coming weeks “if necessary.”
FOX News reports, the president’s comments come just after he condemned Russia’s recent large-scale strike against Ukraine.
The president on Wednesday was asked if he believes Putin actually wants to end the war with Ukraine, to which Trump replied: “I can’t tell you that, but I’ll let you know in about two weeks.”
“Within two weeks, we’re going to find out whether or not he’s tapping us along or not,” Trump told reporters at the Oval Office during a swearing-in ceremony for Jeanine Pirro as interim U.S. attorney. “And if he is, we will respond a little bit differently.”
Trump said his special envoy for the Middle East, Steve Witkoff, is “doing a phenomenal job” and “dealing with them very strongly right now.”
“They seem to want to do something,” Trump said.
