Trump: ‘We’ll See What Happens’ on Russian Sanctions

Asked about the future of U.S. sanctions against Russia, President Donald Trump said he would “see what happens” during a phone call scheduled for Saturday with Vladimir Putin, the country’s president.

“Very early to be talking about that,” Mr. Trump said at a news conference Friday, referring to sanctions in response to Russia’s alleged cyberattacks aimed at influencing the 2016 election and those adopted by the U.S. and Europe after Mr. Putin’s military intervention in Ukraine.

“We look to have a great relationship with all countries,” Mr. Trump said.
