Trump, the man for the job? “President Putin wants us to meet”
On Thursday, the American president-elect said that a meeting with Vladimir Putin was being planned.
The aim of the meeting? To “end” the war in Ukraine, declared Donald Trump. The billionaire stressed that the request had come from the Russian president himself. “President Putin wants us to meet, he's even said so publicly, and we need to end this war, which is a real mess.”
On December 19, 2024, during his annual question-and-answer session, the Kremlin chief said that he was ready to see Donald Trump “at any time”. “If we ever meet President-elect Trump, I'm sure we'll have a lot to talk about,” he assured.
While the president-elect has already called for an “immediate ceasefire” and talks, Ukraine and Europe are dreading his arrival in the White House, fearing that he will force Kiev to make major concessions and hand Russia a geopolitical victory, reports RTBF.
