'What do you think?' Trump asked Putin if he should arm Ukraine: former officials

Raw Story  

According to a report from the New York Times, Donald Trump's hostility toward Ukraine originated during a meeting in 2017 with Russian President Vladimir Putin where the recently elected former president asked the Russian strongman for advice. The report notes that Trump's meeting with Putin in Hamburg led to former Secretary of State Rex W. Tillerson hustling out of the meeting and telling "nervous" aides, "We’ve got work to do to change the president’s mind on Ukraine." At one pivotal moment, Trump asked Putin for advice on whether he should help arm Ukraine only to have the Russian leader tell him it would be " a mistake" before adding that Ukraine would come asking again if he complied. "The meeting in Hamburg fit into a yearlong pattern in which an escalating political grudge against Ukraine on Mr. Trump’s part became an opening for Mr. Putin to pursue his own aim of tempering American support for Kyiv, according to interviews with American and European officials and allies of Mr. Trump, as well as accounts in memoirs," the Times is reporting.
