Trump on Interaction with Putin: Believes in the Power of Dialogue

When commenting on his interactions with Russian President Vladimir Putin, U.S. President Trump told reporters that he believes in the power of dialogue.

Speaking about Putin at the White House, Trump said: "I am a believer in the power of conversation."

Trump criticized the leaders of the G7, who had excluded Moscow from the G8, noting that since then, they spent 90% of their meetings discussing Russia. Adding his comment on Russia's exclusion, Trump said: "That was a foolish move."

Trump emphasized: "My stance is that we should talk to everyone. I'm not the kind of person who says, 'Oh, we won't talk to him. You know, war is ongoing, we won't talk to him.' I like communication."
