President Donald Trump arrives on the South Lawn of the White House in Washington, on Sept. 24, 2017. (Samira Bouaou/The Epoch Times) Former President Donald Trump gave a critical take on Wednesday’s U.S.-Russia summit in Switzerland, arguing that Washington “got nothing” in return for boosting Moscow’s profile on the international stage.
“We gave a very big stage to Russia, and we got nothing,” Trump told Fox News’ Hannity in an interview . “I think it was a good day for Russia. I don’t think we got anything out of it.”

“The United States and Russia have demonstrated that, even in periods of tension, they are able to make progress on our shared goals of ensuring predictability in the strategic sphere, reducing the risk of armed conflicts and the threat of nuclear war,” the two presidents said in the joint statement, according to The White House.
“Today, we reaffirm the principle that a nuclear war cannot be won and must never be fought,” they added.
