US President Donald Trump expressed important views about Russian President Vladimir Putin during his conversation with Turkish leader Recep Tayyip Erdoğan. This was reported by Zamin.uz.
Trump emphasized the necessity for Putin to immediately stop the war actions. He noted that people's lives are being lost in vain and said this process must be stopped.
According to Trump, Russia is spending large amounts of money, using bombs and missiles, but as a result, it is failing to capture territories. Additionally, the American president shared his opinion about the Turkish leader.
He pointed out that while Russia is continuously attacking Ukraine, Erdoğan is planning to limit oil trade with Moscow. According to Trump, Turkey has the potential to significantly influence the events in Ukraine.
Trump stated that he respects Erdoğan and that he can influence the direction of the war, but so far he has maintained neutrality. The US president noted that the Turkish leader is respected not only in his own country but also in Ukraine and Russia.
He specifically highlighted that Erdoğan has built a strong army and is effectively using American weapons. Furthermore, Trump emphasized that he knows Putin closely, just like himself.
