**US President Trump Does Not Label Putin a Dictator**
US President Donald Trump did not call Russian President Vladimir Putin a dictator. This was on February 24, when he met with French President Emmanuel Macron.
When asked if he would call Putin a dictator, Trump said: “I don’t use those words lightly… I think we’re going to see how it all works out.”
**Previous Label for Ukrainian Leader**
Earlier this month, Trump called the leader of Ukraine, Volodymyr Zelensky, a dictator. He made these comments on his social media platform Truth Social. However, this label is not true according to Ukraine’s constitution.
The US and Ukraine have been working together on a minerals deal. This deal would give the US access to rare earth minerals in exchange for aid. Trump will meet with Zelensky soon to finalize the terms of the deal.
**Upcoming Meeting**
Next week, UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer is set to meet Trump.
