Hot mic catches Trump telling the French president he thinks Putin "wants to make a deal for me"
From CNN's Kit Maher at the White House
Ahead of the multilateral meeting, President Donald Trump was caught on a hot mic saying that Russian President Vladimir Putin wants to reach a resolution to the war for him.
“I think he wants to make a deal,” Trump whispered to French President Emmanuel Macron in the East Room. “I think he wants to make a deal for me, you understand that? As crazy as it sounds.”
Trump is also heard talking about setting up a trilateral meeting between Putin and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, which Trump has publicly said he believes will happen.
