“Now we have this opportunity, because of the work that the president has set.”

Sir Alex Yonger, President of MI6, told BBC Radio 4 today: “It is true that Donald Trump is the only one who can solve this, but he warned” Putin plays him. “

“They are all talking about the wrong thing,” he said, adding that the United States’ strategy of resetting bilateral relations with Russia was a “complete imagination” that failed to identify Putin’s “total subjugation” goal of Ukraine.

“This is not related to lands at all. It is related to sovereignty and whether Ukraine is present – and Putin decides that it should not.”

After calling with European leaders, Trump told a press conference that there was an opportunity to hold a meeting between Putin and Zellinski.

He said that he would use his initial meeting with Putin “to find out where we are and what we do,” adding: “We will have a quick second meeting between President Putin and President Zelinsky and I, if they want to get me there.”
