Trump on Ukraine-Russia conflict: “We don't like what's happening either way”

US President Donald Trump said the U.S. will cooperate with Europe to address escalating tensions between Ukraine and Russia."We do not like what’s happening either way. We don't like what's happening, and hopefully it’ll get straightened out," Trump said. "I know Europe is not, they are not thrilled…They’re working on it too. We’re all working on it together," the US President added.

Ukraine said on November 25 that Russia had fired on some of its ships in the Kerch Strait near Crimea, hitting two vessels and injuring six Ukrainian sailors. Russia then seized both ships and a tugboat, Ukraine said. Russia’s federal security service, the FSB, said it seized the ships for illegally sailing into Russian territorial waters.
