Spicer: Trump expects Russia to return Crimea to Ukraine
White House press secretary Sean Spicer says President Trump made it clear he expects Russia to return Crimea to Ukraine, three years after Moscow seized the peninsula.
“President Trump has made it very clear that he expects the Russian government to de-escalate violence in the Ukraine and return Crimea,” Spicer tells reporters at the White House daily press briefing, according to Reuters.
“At the same time, he fully expects to and wants to get along with Russia,” Spicer says, a day after Trump’s national security adviser Michael Flynn resigned over his connections to Moscow.
