Before departing to Europe on July 10, President Donald Trump declined to call Russian President Vladimir Putin a friend or a foe; instead, he referred to him as a “competitor.”
“As far as I’m concerned, [Putin’s] a competitor,” Trump said. “I think that getting along with Russia, getting along with China, getting along with others is a good thing, not a bad thing.”
