Trump has recently been criticized for praising Putin's justification for invading Ukraine and refusing to call Putin 'evil' on national TV.
During his 2016 presidential campaign, Trump suggested that he was okay with Russia keeping the Ukrainian territory of Crimea, which it aggressively seized in 2014.
In August 2019, Trump argued that Russia should be welcomed back into the Group of Seven , an international group that collaborates on economic and security policies. The group suspended Russia's membership in 2014 after Putin annexed Crimea., calling the organization"obsolete" and saying that the U.S. should withdraw from it because its European members didn't invest as much money into it as the United States did.
"I think one of the reasons that Putin did not move during Trump's term in office was [that] he saw the president's hostility with NATO,"."And to Putin's mind, it's a binary proposition: A weaker NATO is stronger Russia."
