TIL Desk/World/Washington/ United States President Donald Trump has arrived in Helsinki for the first summit with his Russian counterpart Vladimir Putin after he lashed out at the media for being critical of his Russian policy. Air Force One touched down at Helsinki Airport carrying Trump ahead of the historic meeting with Putin scheduled for today.
He was greeted by the US Ambassador to Finland Robert Pence, media reports said. Earlier, he had tweeted before leaving for the capital of Finland. “Heading to Helsinki, Finland — looking forward to meeting with President Putin tomorrow,” Trump said in a tweet as he boarded Air Force One for Helsinki.
“Unfortunately, no matter how well I do at the Summit, if I was given the great city of Moscow as retribution for all of the sins and evils committed by Russia… over the years, I would return to criticism that it wasn’t good enough that I should have gotten Saint Petersburg in addition!” he said.
