‘Like Reagan …’: Senator Lindsay Graham says that he is confident that if Putin insists on bad deal then Trump will go away
Senator Lindsay Graham silenced the critics who criticized President Trump for getting ready to meet Vladimir Putin and said Reagan also tried to end the Cold War from Gorbachev. “I am confident that President Trump will move away – like Reagan – if Putin insists on a bad deal,” he wrote. He said, “Good luck, Mr. President, in your efforts to end this cruel war. The world should be drawn for you. I know I am,” he said. Trump announced on Friday that he would meet Putin in Alaska next week to discuss the end of a three -year -long war in Ukraine. Trump is proposing that Eastern European countries swap the area in an attempt to track a peace deal rapidly. Ukrainian President Volodimier Zelansky, who was not invited to the upcoming summit, has rejected the idea and urged the US to give Kiev a seat on the table.Trump said at the White House on Friday, “You are looking at an area that has been fought for three and a half years, a lot of Russians have died. A lot of Ukrainians have died.”“This is very complex. We are going to get some back, we are going to switch something. For the betterment of both, the states will have some swapping.”Russia has confirmed that President Vladimir Putin is scheduled to meet American counterpart Donald Trump in Alaska next Friday, August 15.The Russian state news agency Tass said that Yuri Ushakov, an associate of Kremlin, described the two countries as a close neighbor, so it is quite logical that the leaders’ summit will be in Alaska. ” He said that the summit would focus on options for “long -term resolution for Ukrainian crisis”.According to US officials, Putin has offered to stop the war in Ukraine in exchange for important regional concessions by Kiev. Putin on Wednesday presented the plan of Trump’s foreign messenger Steve Witcoff in Moscow. This will require Ukraine to reduce the eastern Donbas region – most of which are currently occupied by Russia – as well as Crimea, which Russia had illegally annexed in 2014.
