Trump on the Russia-Ukraine War: We Have a Lot of Steps, It’s the Closest I’ve Seen to Maybe Working Out and Settling It

TRANSCRIPT:

TRUMP: “We have a lot of steps, but I think it’s the closest I’ve seen. You’re seeing what I see, too. As an example, President Zelenskyy today, I think it’s the closest I’ve seen to maybe working out a settlement.”

REPORTER: “Why do you say that? Why do you say that, it’s closest?”

TRUMP: “I think they both want it. It’s been a long time. There’s been a lot of death. They’re losing 25,000 people a month and even more than that. A lot of death.”
