Met: Debunking Trump's False Claims
In North Carolina, former President Donald Trump falsely asserted that Vice President Kamala Harris met with Russian President Vladimir Putin before the 2022 Ukraine invasion. However, facts show that Harris met with allies like Ukrainian President Zelensky at the Munich Security Conference, where Putin was absent.
Key Facts About the Meeting
- Trump's Claim: Harris met Putin before the invasion.
- Reality: No meeting ever occurred.
- Harris's Focus: She aimed to align with allies and convey US diplomatic intentions.
