Russian dictator Vladimir Putin is trying to “charm” his US counterpart, President Donald Trump, into agreeing to an unjust deal concerning Ukraine, according to The Times.
The publication analyzes how the relationship between Putin and Trump could reshape the world. With Trump potentially returning to the US presidency and the war Russia launched against Ukraine approaching a critical phase, global politics may hinge significantly on how the two leaders interact and whether they can find common ground, the article states.
The Times notes that Trump and Putin have met in person five times, with their most notable meeting taking place in Helsinki in 2018. During that encounter, they spoke at length with only their interpreters present. Following the meeting, Trump effectively sided with Putin, stating he believed the Russian leader more than the FBI regarding accusations of Russian interference in US elections.
