President Donald Trump told Newsmax on Tuesday that it's possible Russia and President Vladimir Putin are "dragging their feet" on a peace deal with Ukraine.
Trump made the assertion in an interview with "Greg Kelly Reports" from the Roosevelt Room of the White House on Tuesday.
"I don't know. I mean, I'll let you know at a certain point. But I think that Russia wants to see an end to it, but it could be they're dragging their feet," Trump told Newsmax host Greg Kelly. "I've done it over the years, you know; I don't want to sign a contract, I want to sort of stay in the game, but maybe I don't want to do it, quite … I'm not sure. But no, I think Russia would like to see it end, and I think [Ukrainian President Volodymyr] Zelenskyy would like to see it end at this point."
Trump told Kelly that both sides lose a total of 2,500 soldiers on average every week.

"I don't know. I mean, I'll let you know at a certain point. But I think that Russia wants to see an end to it, but it could be they're dragging their feet," Trump told Newsmax host Greg Kelly.
So you admit that Trump used the phrase "dragging their feet" in regard to Russia while also denying he did? No vodka for you!
Putin’s personality is that he likes to do his mass murders and other bullying tactics if it means he can have more power & control for himself. It’s so sad that in 2025 that he has the most powerful nuclear weapons arsenal in the world.
Kelly USED THE TERM.
Trump said he thought Russia wanted to end the war.
I provided the direct quote.
Russian Derangement Syndrome has made you illiterate.
Kelly USED THE TERM.
Yes, and then according to your own source Trump repeated it.
Trump said he thought Russia wanted to end the war.
Actually the full quote you provided was, ""I don't know. I mean, I'll let you know at a certain point. But I think that Russia wants to see an end to it, but it could be they're dragging their feet," Trump told Newsmax host Greg Kelly.". President Trump said he didn't know for sure, that maybe Russia wanted to end the war or maybe they were just dragging their feet. That is not the same as a definite "Russia wants to end the war," as you claim.
In your mind, she was.
What about this didn't you understand, you Zeeptarded moron: "But no, I think Russia would like to see it end."
Again, are you literate?
Why don’t you get your lazy arse and big mouth over there and tell him yourself. Loser!
ROFLMAO. Just can’t help airbrushing history? Words out of Trump’s mouth:
“but it could be they’re dragging their feet,” Trump told Newsmax host Greg Kelly.
