Vice President Mike Pence said he expects President Donald Trump to discuss Russian meddling in U.S. elections, the Kremlin’s military incursions into Ukraine and Syria and other touchy subjects when he meets this summer with Vladimir Putin.
“There are a broad range of issues the president’s going to talk about that need to be addressed,” Pence said in an interview with Bloomberg News aboard Air Force Two on Wednesday. They include the “economic relationship with the United States and Russia and countries of the world.”
