All the details are in the Izvestia article.

What Trump said about Russia

Answering questions from journalists on board the plane on October 26, Donald Trump did not deny the possibility of imposing additional sanctions against Russia. When asked directly about the new restrictions, he answered succinctly: "You will find out," leaving diplomatic uncertainty.

At the same time, the American president distanced himself from discussing the use of frozen Russian EU assets to help Ukraine.

"You need to ask the EU. I'm not involved in this," he said.

Commenting on the test of the Russian Burevestnik missile, Trump stressed the seriousness of relations between the two countries.

"They don't play games with us, we don't play games with them either," the American leader stated.

About plans in Asia

During his Asian tour, Donald Trump did not rule out extending the trip for a possible meeting with North Korean leader Kim Jong Un. According to recent reports, the American president is considering the possibility of additional negotiations with him, which could be a continuation of their previous diplomatic contacts. Trump also stressed that he would be glad to meet with the leader of the DPRK.

"I have a wonderful and long [relationship] with Kim Jong-un, I like him, he likes me too. If he wants to meet, I will be in South Korea," the head of the White House said.

In addition, the US leader also allowed the signing of an agreement on TikTok on Thursday, October 30, during a meeting with Chinese President Xi Jinping. It is reported that negotiations with the Chinese leader may affect not only the fate of the popular application, but also broader issues of technological and economic cooperation. Experts note that Trump's Asian tour demonstrates the continuation of his active foreign policy despite the internal political challenges in the United States.

Is Trump's third term possible

Commenting on the possibility of running for a third presidential term, Donald Trump noted that he had not thought about it seriously, but emphasized his high ratings.

"I didn't really think about it. As you know, we have great candidates, but my ratings are better than ever," he told reporters.

At the same time, Trump ruled out the possibility of running for vice president, calling such a prospect "too sweet" and wrong.

Earlier, Trump's ex-adviser Steve Bannon announced the existence of a plan according to which the current leader could become president again in 2028. Trump himself had not previously ruled out such a possibility, speaking of the existence of "paths" for the nomination, despite the constitutional amendment limiting his term in office to two terms.
