NEW YORK: US President Donald Trump recognizes the need to negotiate with his Russian counterpart Vladimir Putin despite their differences, US Vice President JD Vance said.
"I've heard so many people criticize the President of the United States for talking to Vladimir Putin. You don't have to agree with Vladimir Putin's decision <…>, but if you want to bring about peace, you've got to be strong, you've also got to talk to people," he said in an interview with Fox News.
In mid-August, a summit between Russia and the United States was held in Alaska. The two leaders' meeting lasted approximately three hours, including a one-on-one meeting in the US President's limousine en route to the main meeting venue, and a three-on-three meeting with aides and heads of diplomatic missions.
On October 16, after a telephone conversation with Putin, Trump announced that they had agreed to meet soon in the Hungarian capital. The summit was later postponed because the parties were unable to agree on a meaningful outcome for the Ukrainian conflict. Moscow and Washington stated that the meeting will take place when suitable conditions are created.
