"Why go to go if I don't go": Trump told why Putin didn't fly to Istanbul talks

To spread: US President Donald Trump promises to fly to Istanbul on May 16, if Russia and Ukraine advance in negotiations. Speaking from Qatar as part of a four -day visit to the Middle East, Trump expressed his hope that Russia and Ukraine will be able to "do something" in peace talks, quoted by the American leader of the British Radio Station of the Air Force. According to Trump, the full -scale war in Ukraine should stop. "We would like the war to end.

I think we have a chance to do it," he added. Commenting on the absence of Russian President Vladimir Putin as part of a delegation at Istanbul negotiations, the US president said it: "Why is he [Putin] to go if I don't go? I don't think Putin will come if I am not there. " Trump again confirmed that he was not going to go to Istanbul. According to him, "our people are present there", referring to US representatives. "[State Secretary] Marco Rubio does fantastic things.

We have our own people there, but not me. If something happens, I will go there on Friday," he summed up. Meanwhile, Rubio has already stated in Antalya, where he was involved in NATO negotiations, about Trump's readiness for any variants of peace dialogue in Ukraine. The US wants to help and insist on the lack of military resolution of conflict. "Washington wants to see progress in the next few days," he added.
