Reporter: We can all feel your disappointment towards Putin.
Trump: Yes.
Reporter: Do you think he lied to you about his intentions in Ukraine?
Trump: I don't want to use the word "lie." I just know that we had a pleasant conversation, and let's say, on three or so occasions, it seemed we were about to reach a ceasefire, perhaps even peace. You can make divisions, do whatever is necessary to achieve the final goal, but suddenly missiles flew towards Kyiv and other places. Then I would say, "What's going on? I just talked to him four or five hours ago, and it seemed we were moving toward (peace)." After that, I would say, never mind, I won't talk anymore. You know, this has happened too many times. I don't like it.
