US President Donald Trump said he is "disappointed but not done" with Russian President Vladimir Putin.
"I'm disappointed in him, but I'm not done with him. But I'm disappointed in him," Trump said in an exclusive phone call with the BBC when asked if he was done with Putin.
“We’ll have a great conversation. I’ll say: ‘That’s good, I’ll think we’re close to getting it done,’ and then he’ll knock down a building in Kyiv,” Trump added.
The US president was pressed on whether he trusts the Russian leader, and replied: "I trust almost no-one."
Trump was speaking hours after he announced plans to send weapons to Ukraine and warned of severe tariffs on Russia if there was no ceasefire deal in 50 days.
