New statement from Trump: We have made great progress on Russia

Donald Trump answered questions from members of the press after discussing economic developments during his presidency. Trump stated that "the talks were quite productive" regarding the Russia-Ukraine war.

Stating that he would decide on new sanctions against Russia in the future, Trump noted that a 50 percent tax is currently being applied to Russia.

Trump spoke as follows:

There is a possibility that we are coming to the end of the war; the possibility of a meeting with Putin and Zelensky is quite high... We ended 5 wars, we eliminated Iran's capacity to reach nuclear weapons. 

Thousands of people are losing their lives, a lot of missiles were falling on Kyiv... A large number of soldiers lost their lives, this is not my war but I want to end it. This was Biden's war, it started on his watch. If I had been president at that time, this war would definitely not have started; I am here to end this war.

We have made great progress with Putin, we have made significant progress with Russia.
