Russia-Ukraine War ‘Most Difficult To End,’ Says Trump Amid Rising Global Frictions | US-Russia

In a week of high-stakes moves, Donald Trump called the Russia-Ukraine war the toughest conflict he has faced, even as he prepares to speak with Vladimir Putin. At home, Trump courted top tech leaders including Zuckerberg, Cook, Gates, Pichai and Altman at a White House dinner on artificial intelligence. Meanwhile, at the SCO Summit, Putin had warned the U.S. against using sanctions to weaken India and China, declaring the “colonial era is over.” Trump, in turn, lashed out at Xi Jinping for hosting Putin and Kim Jong Un in Beijing, accusing China of conspiring against the United States.
