WASHINGTON, Jumada I 19, 1438, February 16, 2017, SPA -- President Donald Trump on Thursday said reports in the U.S. media about his administration's relationship with Russia may make it difficult for him to strike a deal with Russian President Vladimir Putin to ease tensions between Washington and Moscow, according to Reuters. "Putin probably assumes that he can't make a deal with me any more because politically it would be unpopular for a politician to make a deal," Trump said at a press conference. --SPA 22:24 LOCAL TIME 19:24 GMT www.spa.gov.sa/w334256
