President Trump has given the greatest hint yet that a meeting between President Putin and Ukraine's President Zelensky will happen. Speaking at the White House tonight less than 24 hours before he is due to meet Putin for a summit in Anchorage, Alaska, Trump said the most important meeting will be the "second meeting we're going to have" between the Ukrainian and Russian leaders.
He said: "We have a meeting with president Putin tomorrow, I think it's going to be a good meeting, but the more important meeting will be the second meeting we're going to have.
"We're going to have President Putin, President Zelensky and myself, and maybe we'll bring some of the European leaders along, maybe not. We are going to see what happens"I think President Putin will make peace, I think President Zelensky will make peace, we'll see if they can get along.
"If they can it will be great. You know I've solved six wars in the last six months... and I am very proud of it."I thought the easiest one would be this one, it's actually the most difficult."
