Investing.com -- U.S. President Donald Trump expressed uncertainty on Wednesday about Russian President Vladimir Putin’s attendance at talks concerning the war in Ukraine. These discussions are scheduled to take place in Turkey on Thursday.

Speaking to reporters while traveling on Air Force One to Qatar, Trump mentioned that Putin had expressed a desire for him to attend the talks. "He’d like me to be there, and that’s a possibility. ... I don’t know that he would be there if I’m not there. We’re going to find out," Trump said.

The U.S. President also noted that he might visit Turkey to participate in these discussions as part of his ongoing trip to the Middle East this week. However, it remains unclear whether Putin will be present at the talks if Trump decides not to attend.
