WASHINGTON (Reuters) – U.S. Vice President JD Vance defended President Donald Trump’s negotiations with his Russian counterpart Vladimir Putin on Thursday, and said that an end to Russia-Ukraine conflict was near.
“How are you going to end the war unless you’re talking to Russia?” Vance said at the Conservative Political Action Conference in National Harbor, Maryland.
“I really believe we’re on the cusp of peace in Europe for the first time in three years,” he added.
