The US president wants quick solutions, which are not always possible, Russias top diplomat has said

US President Donald Trump wants "quick solutions" to end the Ukraine conflict, and this attitude is partially to blame for his own "disappointment" with the pace of the settlement process, Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov has suggested.

The top diplomat made the remarks on Thursday in an interview with Russia's Channel One. Lavrov added that the US president is "a man of action, deals, and business, as he himself constantly emphasizes" and takes such an approach to politics as well.

"When President Trump says he's disappointed... it's partially explained by the fact that he wants quick solutions," Lavrov suggested. "In some areas, this may work; in others, it's unlikely."
