Asked if she believed Putin wanted Trump in the White House, Clinton said she was not going to jump to that conclusion. Yelchenko said even if this was Trump’s opinion as a candidate, He hoped and was “almost sure that that opinion will change”.

TRUMP: “If we can have a good relationship with Russian Federation and if Russian Federation would help us get rid of ISIS. that would be a positive thing, not a negative thing”. He’s not going to go into Ukraine, all right? “That’s the area with the wealth so that means the rest of Ukraine will fall and it’s predicted to fall fairly quickly because without the money – It’s like this country, if we don’t make this country great, it’s going to fall”.
You can mark it down and you can put it down, you can take it anywhere you want.
ABC’s George Stephanopoulos followed up by asking, “he’s already there, isn’t he?”
Stephanopoulos responded that Putin already had forces in Ukraine, to which Trump replied that Putin was there “in a certain way”. He explained that when he said Russian Federation wouldn’t move into Ukraine, he was referring to a time when he is president.
Let’s look at some facts. Others pointed out that not since 1976, when President Gerald Ford committed a major error in one of his debates with Jimmy Carter, declaring that “there is no Soviet domination of Eastern Europe”, has the US’s relationship with Russian Federation been an electoral issue. Voters in Crimea were split, but they voted 54 percent for Ukrainian independence. Tensions built, protests erupted, and, in 2014, Ukrainians pushed out a pro-Russian government in Kiev. In 2014, Moscow covertly occupied, then annexed, the entire region of Crimea.
The key question, what was Russia’s role?
However, blaming Putin’s intelligence services on any hacks would pressure Obama’s administration to divulge its evidence, which relies on classified sources and methods, USA intelligence officials said on Monday. They say Russian Federation continues to train rebels and direct low-level attacks against Ukrainian forces on the front line.
Well he’s a awful president, Trump said in an interview with ABC7 Washington.
Putin was outraged by US support for Ukraine and by USA military intervention around the world, particularly in Libya, on Clinton’s watch.
“In the meantime, they took over Crimea and I understood that”, said Trump to Bill O’Reily, according to POLITICO. “I’m leading her in the polls”, he said and alleged that Clinton She doesn’t know how to win. “It was taken over during Obama’s regime, big tough president”. The U.S. hasn’t recognized the legitimacy of Russian referendums in Crimea, saying they were not conducted fairly. Strong alliances are essential to USA national security. The Obama administration along with the European Union placed sanctions on Russian Federation soon after. “And the next day, the story comes out and we really let it roll a little bit”, Trump said.

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”.
