7:05Now PlayingTrump’s comments about Russia and Ukraine don’t make much sense. Cenk Uygur, host of The Young Turks, breaks it down. Tell us what you think in the comment section below.
“Donald Trump attempted today to clarify his comments that Russian President Vladimir Putin did not have forces in Ukraine.
“When I said in an interview that Putin ‘is not going into Ukraine, you can mark it down,’ I am saying if I am President. Already in Crimea!” Trump tweeted. “So with all the Obama tough talk on Russia and the Ukraine, they have already taken Crimea and continue to push. That’s what I said!”
In an interview with ABC News’ George Stephanopoulos on Sunday, Trump said Putin was “not going into Ukraine.”
“He’s not going to go into Ukraine, all right? You can mark it down. You can put it down. You can take it anywhere you want,” Trump said.
Stephanopoulos responded that Putin already had forces in Ukraine, to which Trump replied that Putin was there “in a certain way.”
“But I’m not there. You have Obama there," Trump said, suggesting the president was to blame for the 2014 Russian annexation of Crimea, a Ukrainian peninsula in the Black Sea.
Ukraine’s foreign minister tweeted a response to Trump’s online clarification today, saying he looks forward “to tough actions to stop this push [by Russia into Ukraine] and to reverse it, of course including Crimea.”
