Trump allegedly admitted that the hardest thing he finds difficult is negotiating with Putin.



US President Donald Trump has expressed growing dissatisfaction with the lack of progress in the peaceful resolution of the war between Ukraine and Russia at a private event with donors of his political club in Florida. This is reported by The Wall Street Journal, citing sources who attended the meeting.

According to one of the participants in the meeting, the head of the White House admitted that the situation is so disturbing to him that he "can't sleep well."

Trump said that talks with Russian President Vladimir Putin are particularly difficult for him because Putin is demanding too much and has shown no willingness to compromise on issues related to Ukraine," the newspaper said.

WSJ writes that in recent weeks, Donald Trump has repeatedly complained in conversations with his advisers about the lack of progress on the Ukrainian issue and expressed bewilderment about Russian attacks on neighbourhoods where children are located.

He also questioned whether Putin had changed since his previous presidency, which, according to sources, indicates the US leader's anxiety and frustration with the current geopolitical situation," the publication points out.

The US president also complained that the situation in the Gaza Strip remains extremely confusing. According to him, it is almost impossible to find a solution, as "the conflict has been going on for centuries".
