“I’m not so interested in talking anymore,” Trump said as he talked to the media as he sat with British Prime Minister Kier Starmer, according to Fox News.
“He talks — we have such nice conversations, such respectful and nice conversation. And then people die the following night,” Trump said.
Earlier, Trump said he had become frustrated that talking with Putin never led to results.
“I would have said five times we would have had a deal. I’ve spoken to President Putin a lot. I always got along with him very well,” Trump said in a video posted to X by C-SPAN.
“We thought we had that settled numerous times,” he said.
“And then President Putin goes out and such, launching rockets into some city like Kyiv and kills a lot of people in a nursing home or whatever. You have bodies lying all over the street,” Trump said. “And I say, that’s not the way to do it. So we’ll see what happens.”
