It is time for elections in Ukraine, believes US President Donald Trump.
“There have been no elections for a long time. It is great to say: “You know, we can't have elections“. But it is time for them,“ he told reporters.
Trump said he believed that a deal with Russia on Ukraine was possible.
“We are working very well with Russia,“ he told reporters aboard his plane. "We can make a deal with Russia to stop the potential killing of millions more people," the US leader said.
The Washington administration intends to return to considering a possible deal for mining in Ukraine, Trump added.
"I think I'll resurrect it", he stressed after a question about the deal. "We'll see what happens. But I'll resurrect it or it won't be as fun," the US leader added, without explaining what consequences he had in mind for the Ukrainian side.
