Intressant, för att the loony bin på Pennsylvania Avenue meddelade i vanlig ordning sin alternativa fakta att resan var en strålande success och parterna kommer att ha löst konflikten innan nästa lördag.
Den nuvarande amerikanska administrationens problematiska, och till stor del fientliga, inställning till fakta, uppriktighet och transparens har gjort landet till en mycket opålitlig aktör, något internationella iakttagare fått märka av:

To state the obvious, Reuters is a global news organization that reports independently and fairly in more than 100 countries, including many in which the media is unwelcome and frequently under attack. I am perpetually proud of our work in places such as Turkey, the Philippines, Egypt, Iraq, Yemen, Thailand, China, Zimbabwe, and Russia, nations in which we sometimes encounter some combination of censorship, legal prosecution, visa denials, and even physical threats to our journalists. We respond to all of these by doing our best to protect our journalists, by recommitting ourselves to reporting fairly and honestly, by doggedly gathering hard-to-get information – and by remaining impartial. We write very rarely about ourselves and our troubles and very often about the issues that will make a difference in the businesses and lives of our readers and viewers.
We don’t know yet how sharp the Trump administration’s attacks will be over time or to what extent those attacks will be accompanied by legal restrictions on our news-gathering.
Och vad gäller Donalds inverkan på amerikansk politik så har han egentligen bara två agendor; öka sin personliga rikedom på det amerikanska folkets bekostnad och se till att göra Ryssland Великий igen:

U.S. doesn't want to be 'handcuffed' to Ukraine agreement
U.S. Secretary of State Rex Tillerson signaled on Wednesday that the United States could back away from the Minsk agreement to end fighting in Ukraine, telling a congressional hearing the Trump administration does not want to be "handcuffed."
The Minsk peace agreement, brokered by France and Germany and signed by Russia and Ukraine in February 2015, calls for a ceasefire, the withdrawal of heavy weapons from the front line and constitutional reform to give eastern Ukraine more autonomy.
