Pres. Trump likely to meet with Putin in July: report
The plans are not final, sources told Bloomberg. However, the meeting could take place either before the July 11 NATO summit in Belgium or after Trump visits the United Kingdom on July 13. The White House declined to comment to Bloomberg. A potential meeting between Trump and Putin has reportedly been in the works for several weeks. However a potential date and location had not been previously reported. Despite his claims that no administration has been tougher on Russia than his own, Trump has drawn criticism since taking office for not speaking out more forcefully against Putin, particularly in the wake of the U.S. intelligence community’s conclusion that Russia attempted to influence the 2016 presidential election in Trump's favor.
