During an interview on CNN, anchor Jake Tapper challenged Steve Witkoff, a State Department official, with footage of Russian State TV praising Trump. The clip featured host Vladimir Soloviov claiming Trump's views align closely with Putin's, suggesting they share talking points. Tapper pressed Witkoff on the implications of this alignment. Witkoff, however, deflected the question, emphasizing the importance of maintaining good relationships with Russia and Ukraine to end violence in the region. His comments highlighted the complexities of U.S.-Russia relations amid the ongoing Ukraine crisis.
When Trump is answering questions about the press conference. I think it is not a coincidence that many of the narratives that are being voiced largely materialized after their conversation. The phrases [Trump] is saying, are so deep and so correct. They are in total alignment with the way we see things.
I think we've had, Jake, by my estimation, almost a million and a half deaths share. And finally, we have a leader that is President Trump who is determined to end the carnage.
The only way you're going to end the carnage is if you have a relationship with the leaders of both countries that are involved.
I went over to Russia, I had a meeting with President Putin. It was a long meeting. Positive, constructive. Lots of good things got discussed.
