Trump discusses Putin meeting with GOP governors at Mar-a-Lago dinner

Donald Trump hosted 22 Republican governors at Mar-a-Lago to discuss his plans for a second term. He announced a meeting with Russian President Vladimir Putin, stating, "We're setting it up." This marks a shift in U.S. foreign policy focus. The gathering aimed to strengthen ties with GOP-led states, following what attendees described as federal overreach under President Biden. Concerns have been raised about Trump's approach to the Russia-Ukraine conflict and U.S. military support for Ukraine. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has called for continued U.S. support, while European allies are prepared to step in if U.S. aid decreases. Trump's administration will face scrutiny regarding its stance on Ukraine after his inauguration on January 20.
