Trump seeks direct talks with Putin, warns Iran of consequences

• Meeting with Putin: Donald Trump emphasised that it is necessary to have a face-to-face meeting with Vladimir Putin to resolve the conflict in Ukraine. If it doesn't succeed, the situation could become "very interesting."
• Warning for Iran: "Move quickly, or something bad is going to happen."
• Decisions regarding Syria: Trump lifted sanctions against Syria, arguing that the country "would not have any chance of success" without this step.

During a briefing on Air Force One, Donald Trump expressed the need for a direct meeting with Vladimir Putin. "We have to meet, he and I will meet. I think we’ll solve it, or maybe not, but at least we’ll know," Trump said. The President emphasized that phone conversations might not be sufficient to resolve the conflict in Ukraine.

Trump warned Iran that it must quickly accept the American proposal regarding the nuclear programme. "Tehran knows it must act very quickly, otherwise something bad will happen," noted the President of the USA. This statement indicates growing tensions between the two countries and the pressure the United States is exerting on Iran.

The President chose to lift sanctions against Syria, a move made without prior consultations with Israel. Trump defended the decision by arguing that Syria would have no chance of success without the removal of sanctions. He also expressed praise for Syria’s new President, Ahmad al-Shara, describing him as a "strong leader." Regarding Israel's plans for an offensive in the Gaza Strip, Trump refrained from taking a clear stance but stressed the importance of providing assistance to the Palestinians.
