President Trump asked to meet Vladimir Putin on sidelines of upcoming G-20 meeting, Russian media claims
President Donald Trump has requested to meet with Russian President Vladimir Putin in late June on the sidelines of the G20 meeting in Japan, according to media reports from Russia.
The reports were released one day before Secretary of State Mike Pompeo’s visit on Tuesday to Sochi, Russia, to speak with Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov about a variety of issues. Some reports claimed Pompeo would push the issue of a potential Trump-Putin meeting at this time. The relationship between the United States and Russia is also fraught. Trump’s connections to Russia and reluctance to criticize Putin have come under intense scrutiny during the first two years of his presidency, as federal investigators looked into whether members of his campaign collaborated with Moscow when Russian operatives attempted to interfere in the 2016 presidential elections.
“We didn’t discuss that. Really, we didn’t discuss it. We discussed five or six things,” Trump said during a press conference with Slovakia’s prime minister.
