Former U.S. president Donald Trump said on 13 August that he does not believe he can persuade Russian president Vladimir Putin to cease strikes on civilians in Ukraine, telling reporters, "I guess the answer is no, because I've had that conversation." Trump added that he had "a lot of good conversations" with Putin during his time in office and reiterated that he "wants to end the war," but suggested domestic political controversies over Russia limited his ability to engage Moscow more forcefully while in the White House.
