US President Donald Trump appeared Wednesday to rebuff Vladimir Putin's offer to mediate in the Israel-Iran conflict, saying the Russian president should end his own war in Ukraine first.
He actually offered to help mediate, I said ‘do me a favor, mediate your own. Let’s mediate Russia first, okay?’" Trump told reporters at the White House. “I said ‘Vladimir, let’s mediate Russia first, you can worry about this later.’”
Trump doesn’t know what the word mediate means.
Also Trump three days ago: In addition, Trump told ABC News that “it’s possible we could get involved” in the conflict and said that he would be “open” to Russian President Vladimir Putin being a mediator in the conflict.
Maybe he likes the word because it starts with “me”
