Trump:

Ukraine joining NATO was always a no-no for the Russians. Be it in the form of the Soviet Union or Russia.

This was long before Putin.

Trump on Zelensky and Putin:

Maybe they're getting along a little bit better than I thought.

Trump:

I hope Putin is going to be good. If he is not, it is going to be a rough situation.

Trump says there will be no US troops on the ground in Ukraine.

Trump:

France, Germany and the UK want boots on the ground as part of security guarantee for Ukraine.

Trump:

Ukraine is going to get a lot of land.

Trump:

Zelensky has to show some flexibility also.

Trump:

I did not call Putin in front of the European leaders. I thought that would be disrespectful to Putin.

Trump:

Russia is a powerful military nation, whether people like it or not. It is the much bigger nation.

You don't take on a nation that is 10 times your size.

Trump:

Ukraine was sort of a buffer between Russia and the rest of Europe. Everything worked out well until Biden got involved.
