US Vice President JD Vance said Donald Trump recently told him that his primary mission is to restore peace in Europe, Reuters reported, quoted by BTA.
Vance made the statement while addressing US troops at a military base in England.
“I just spoke to him, right before I got to the podium. He said very simply that as an administration, we are going to make restoring peace in Europe our mission,“ Vance said.
This came after a virtual meeting between Trump, European leaders and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, two days before Trump's talks with Russian President Vladimir Putin in Alaska.
