While he's in Europe next month, President Trump will meet with Russian President Vladimir Putin, two people with knowledge of the plan told Bloomberg on Wednesday.
The meeting could take place before the NATO summit in Brussels on July 11 or after Trump visits Britain on July 13, one person said. The pair met twice during last summer's G20 summit. Earlier this month at the G7 summit in Canada, Trump appealed to the other members to let Russia back in the group; the country was expelled after Russia annexed Crimea in 2014.
