Putin invites Trump to Moscow, 2 days after White House postponed summit
MOSCOW — Just two days after the White House postponed plans to have Russia President Vladimir Putin visit Washington in the fall, the Russian leader said Friday that he had invited President Trump to visit him in Moscow.
Praising Trump as a leader “who seeks to keep his promises,” Putin continued to push for a second summit, although their first, this month, generated intense criticism of his U.S. counterpart. Putin said he was ready to meet either in Washington or Moscow.
The White House quickly responded favorably to the idea.
