Trump admin updates: Trump plans to issue executive order to require voter ID

ABC News Senior Political Correspondent Rachel Scott pressed President Donald Trump on his phone call with Russian President Vladimir Putin last week, during which the White House said Putin promised to meet with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy in the coming weeks.

"Mr. president, when you met with Russian President Vladimir Putin, how soon did he say that he wanted to sit down with Ukrainian President Zelenskyy?" Scott asked. "Russia, as of now, says there's no meeting on the books and no agenda set."
"Well, that's going to be up to them," Trump said. "It takes two to tango, I always say. And they should meet, I think, before I have a meeting and probably close the deal but I think it's appropriate they meet."

Trump called it a "concession" for Putin to travel to Alaska to meet earlier this month, saying the Russian leader "wasn't happy" to travel to the U.S. Trump said he "appreciate the fact" Putin came to the U.S. and said he's "always had a very good relationship" with him.

"I don't know that they'll meet," he went on to say about Putin and Zelenskyy. "Maybe they will, maybe they won't. They'd like me to be at the meeting. I said, 'You guys have to work it out. It's between you.'"

Trump was asked how long he was willing to let this play out and whether there would be additional consequences for Russia if Putin doesn't sit down with Zelenskyy. Trump said "we'll see what happens over the next week or two."

President Donald Trump is now meeting with South Korean President Lee Jae-myung in the Oval Office.

Trump said the discussions would center on trade and shipbuilding.

Lee took office in June following political turmoil in South Korea after former President Yoon Suk Yeol declared martial law and was subsequently impeached. Lee praised Trump and said he wanted the U.S. to play a role in establishing peace on the Korean peninsula.

President Donald Trump said on Monday he will meet North Korea's Kim Jong Un "at some point."

"I look forward to it, actually," Trump said.

Trump said he "got along great" with the North Korean leader. They met several times during his first presidency, and Trump was the first sitting U.S. president to step into North Korea.

"I know him better than you do. I know him better than anybody, almost, other than his sister," Trump said of Kim.

President Donald nTrump said he's spoken with Russian President Vladimir Putin since his call with the Russian leader last Monday while hosting Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy and European leaders at the White House.

"Every conversation I have with him is a good conversation," Trump said. "And then, unfortunately, a bomb is loaded up into Kyiv or someplace, and then I get very angry about it. I think we're going to get the war done. It's tough."

"The fact that he went to Alaska, our country, I think, was a big statement that he wants to get it done," Trump added.

Despite Trump's rapid-fire diplomacy in Alaska and Washington, the Kremlin's only poured cold water on Trump's push for a bilateral meeting between Putin and Zelenskyy. When asked why he thinks Putin is reluctant to meet with Zelenskyy, Trump responded: "Because he doesn't like him.
