How India influenced the Trump-Putin meet? | ‘Trump Used India as a Pawn to Pressurise Putin’

In an exclusive conversation with OneIndia News, Vlada Galan – Geopolitical Strategist; President & Chair, International Ukrainian Crisis Fund, says that Trump used India as a Pawn to pressure Putin into a Summit.
