Trump: Crimea Was on Obama’s Watch, He Allowed It to Happen

‘Long before I got here, President Obama allowed that to happen’

EXCERPT:

TRUMP: "That’s an interesting question. Because, you know, long before I got here, President Obama allowed that to happen. That was on his watch. Not on my watch. People like to say oh, Crimea, but the fact is they built bridges to Crimea. They just opened a big bridge that was started years ago. They built, I think, a submarine port, substantially added billions of dollars. So, that was on Barack Obama’s watch. That was not on Trump’s watch. Would I have allowed it to happen? No, I would not have allowed it to happen. But he did allow it to happen, so that was his determination. What will happen with Crimea from this point on, that, I can’t tell you. But I’m not happy about Crimea. But again, that was Barack Obama’s watch not Trump’s watch. Yeah, go ahead. Sure."
