U.S. President Donald Trump feels irritated when, in the context of talks with Russian president Vladimir Putin, he appears weak.
This was said by former Ukrainian Foreign Minister Pavlo Klimkin in a comment to Novyny.LIVE.
«He is annoyed by endless conversations that seem fine but lead to nothing. It makes him look like a weakling. Naturally, Trump doesn’t want to be seen as weak, ” Klimkin explained.
Furthermore, according to Klimkin, time is starting to pressure Donald Trump.
«He needs a political result before the midterm [U.S. Congressional] elections next year. Time is fleeting. Even for Trump, it’s not infinite, ” the Ukrainian diplomat notes.
