US President Donald Trump has expressed his concerns over Russia’s approach to peace talks in Ukraine, while also airing frustrations with China over their trade war. In a statement, Putin offered “big concessions” by not targeting the entire country, but this move has sparked alarm among US allies.
The US president reiterated his opposition to Moscow’s recent strikes on Kyiv and expressed dissatisfaction with China’s lack of engagement in direct talks. The ongoing trade war between the world’s two largest economies remains unresolved.
