Donald Trump actually said...

"A good day in talks and meetings with Russia and Ukraine. They are very close to a deal, and the two sides should now meet, at very high levels, to ‘finish it off.’"

"I have no intention of trying to fire Powell."

"Ukraine and Russia should meet for 'very high level talks' on ending the bloody three-year war sparked by Russia's invasion."

"It makes me think that maybe he doesn’t want to stop the war, he’s just tapping me along."
