Trump Shocks Mark Carney With Putin Googly; ‘If He Were Here…’ | Russia-Ukraine War

U.S. President Donald Trump kicked off his time at the Group of Seven summit on Monday by suggesting that Russia and maybe even China should be part of the organization. Trump asserted that it was a “very big mistake” to remove Russia in 2014 after it annexed Crimea, a move that precipitated Russia’s wider invasion of Ukraine in 2022. The comments added more complexity regarding Trump’s interests as he is set to meet on Tuesday with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky about ending the brutal war started by the invasion.
