‘We’ll talk about it later’: Trump ‘tight-lipped’ on meet with Putin

Asianet News English

In a carefully guarded stance, US President Donald Trump stayed tight-lipped about his recent meeting with Russian President Vladimir Putin, choosing instead to defer questions to Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán. The meeting between Trump and Orbán, held at the White House, focused on pressing geopolitical issues including the Russia-Ukraine conflict and Hungary’s exemption from US sanctions on Russian oil.

00:00We're talking, but we'll report on that later, meetings with Putin.

00:05We were talking about that with Victor.

00:07He understands Putin and knows him very well.

00:10And I feel that, I mean, I'm going to let you say what you think,

00:15but I think that Victor feels we're going to get that war ended in the not-too-distant future.

00:21Victor, do you want to talk about that?

00:23I'm strongly convinced.

00:25So the question is whether we Westerners are unified or not.

00:28The problem is that the president has huge peace efforts,

00:32which are just splendid and very positive for the European continent

00:36and all the peoples of Europe.

00:39But at the same time, we are not unified because Brussels and the Europeans

00:43have a different approach to the war.

00:45So the only pro-peace government is the United States government

00:49and the small Hungary in Europe anyway.

00:51All the other governments prefer to continue the war

00:53because many of them think that Ukraine can win on the front line,
