President Trump said during his phone call with Vladimir Putin that he compared the war in Ukraine to a fight among children, suggesting they ‘fight for a while.’ Trump also said he warned Putin not to retaliate against Ukraine over its recent drone attack on Russian bombers.

US President Donald Trump said on Friday (June 6) that he hadn't decided whether to deploy sanctions against Russia that are being considered by the Senate. The Senate is weighing a bill that would impose stiff sanctions on Russia - and secondary sanctions on countries that trade with Russia - over its war in Ukraine.
