Trump: meeting with Putin in Paris uncertain

washington - The American president Donald Trump does not assume that he has a conversation with Kremlin leader Vladimir Putin at the end of the week in Paris. 'I'm not sure if we will have a meeting in Paris, probably not,' Trump said in Washington on Monday. 'So far we have not arranged anything.'

Putin had proposed a meeting in the margins of the hundredth anniversary of the end of the First World War next weekend in Paris. The background was the announced withdrawal by the United States from the INF disarmament treaty, which prohibits short-range and medium-range missiles.
