Trump went on to say that he has a good relationship with both Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky and Russian President Vladimir Putin. “I will get it settled even before I become president,” he said.

When asked to clarify his stance on whether it’s in the US’ best interest for Ukraine to win the war, Trump said:

“I think it’s the US best interest to get this war finished and just get it done — negotiate a deal because we have to stop all of these human lives being destroyed.”
