  "account": "In an interview with 60 Minutes, former U.S. President Donald Trump expressed his opinions on the ongoing conflict between Russia and Ukraine. He predicted that the war would have a \"little bit different shape\" for Ukraine, suggesting that the country's shape would change as a result of the conflict. Trump claimed to be \"very close\" to reaching a deal with both the U.S. and Russia for a trilateral peace negotiation, which he believed would end the war soon.\n\nHe attributed the main obstacle to peace to the \"hatred\" between Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky and Russian President Vladimir Putin. Despite acknowledging the understandable feelings of Zelensky towards Putin, Trump refused to comment on who he trusted more. He also hesitated to claim responsibility for the slowdowns of Starlink military systems used by Ukraine, stating that he did not know who was responsible. Trump defended his policies on the war, emphasizing his tough stance against Russia and highlighting the sanctions he has imposed. He also defended the military aid given to Ukraine during the Biden administration, despite criticism from others.",
  "summary": "\"There's a very important meeting taking place,\" Trump said. \"I believe that that war is going to end and it's going to end soon. And the only reason it's going to end is because of me.\"",
