“So when I said, ‘Believe me, Russia’s not going into Ukraine… the person said, ‘But they’re already in Ukraine, ‘” Trump said.

Trump previously suggested that he would consider recognizing Russia’s illegal annexation of Crimea through an internationally-condemned referendum, which would mark a policy reversal of Washington’s stance on the matter if he is elected president in November. “Russia, if you’re listening, I hope you’re able to find the 30,000 emails that are missing”, Mr Trump told reporters.
She said those remarks, Trump’s praise for Putin, and his support for many Russian foreign policy positions, lead to the conclusion that “he is not temperamentally fit to be president and commander-in-chief”.
Donald Trump has “helpfully” cleared up his relationship with Vladimir Putin by affirming that the Russian President has never bought him dinner. And frankly, that whole part of the world is a mess under Obama, with all the strength that you’re talking about and all of the power of North Atlantic Treaty Organisation and all of this, in the meantime, he’s going where – he takes – takes Crimea, he’s sort of – I mean…

“Just so you understand, he said very nice things about me”. He responded: “I think I’ve made a lot of sacrifices”.

And top officials with the Koch operation released a statement questioning Trump’s “facts” after Trump bragged in a tweet that he had snubbed them. The Obama administration along with the European Union placed sanctions on Russian Federation soon after.
“Well, he’s (Putin) already there, isn’t he?” In addition to which, Trump’s latest comments on Crimea, NATO, and his campaign’s amendments to the Republican Party’s platform regarding Ukraine are not helping his case against the accusation that the Kremlin is backing the Trump campaign.
The speaker of Russia’s lower house of parliament said that a Hillary Clinton presidency would not be good for U.S.-Russian relations, Russian media reported Sunday. Trump accused the Democrats of trying to fix the timing.
“I was not involved in that”, he said. “I think you will probably be rewarded mightily by our press”, Trump said…
He further said that he wants tough people and Clinton is not tough.
In an interview, with The New York Times just before the Republican convention, Trump said that if Russian Federation attacked North Atlantic Treaty Organisation member nations he would decide whether to come to their assistance only if he decided that they had “fulfilled their obligations to us”.

The GOP nominee repeated that line in an interview set to air Tuesday night on Fox News’s “The O’Reilly Factor”, adding: “I think he’s been a disaster”.
