He said these things in an interview with CBS on Monday (October 7). News from AFP.

Kamala Harris said that the meeting with Putin will not happen without a representative of Ukraine. Because it is important to talk about the future of Ukraine.

President Joe Biden's administration has already rejected talks with Putin. Kamala Harris also pledged to recall the same policy.

Harris has also criticized Republican rival Donald Trump's Ukraine policy. He described Trump's policy as a capitulation to Russian aggression.

Trump has previously criticized Washington's massive military and financial aid to Ukraine and said he could quickly reach a peace deal with Putin.

In this regard, Harris said, if Donald Trump had been president, Putin would have occupied Kiev by now. Trump said, I can end the Russia-Ukraine war in one day. It is actually a matter of surrender.

Harris, meanwhile, said he would discuss Ukraine's application to join the NATO military alliance when that time comes.
