Trump Says Putin Asked Him To Settle War In Ukraine


(MENAFN- UkrinForm) Trump made the statement while speaking at the America Business Forum in Miami, according to an Ukrinform correspondent.

"I spoke to him [Putin] two weeks ago, and he said, 'We've been trying to settle this war for ten years but we weren't able to do it. You've got to settle it'," Trump said.

He added that he "got some of these things settled in an hour," without clarifying what exactly he meant.
