Trump Says US Doesn’t Want Russia, China Moving Closer Together

President Donald Trump expressed caution over closer ties between China and Russia, outlining plans to improve relations with two countries that have united in opposing the US on the world stage.

“As a student of history, which I am — and I’ve watched it all — the first thing you learn is you don’t want Russia and China to get together,” the US leader told Fox News, in comments that came shortly after he wrapped talks with Russian President Vladimir Putin that fell short of securing a 30-day ceasefire in Ukraine.
