Trump Says Doesn't Want "Wasted Meeting" With Putin
President Donald Trump said Tuesday his plan for a swift meeting with Russian leader Vladimir Putin was on hold because he doesn't want it to be a "waste of time." It was the latest twist in Trump's stop-and-go effort to resolve the war in Ukraine.
The decision to hold off on the meeting in Budapest, Hungary, which Trump had announced last week, was made following a call Monday between Secretary of State Marco Rubio and Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov.
"I don't want to have a wasted meeting," Trump said. "I don't want to have a waste of time - so we'll see what happens."
