WASHINGTON (AA) - US President Donald Trump said Friday he is going to meet his Russian counterpart, Vladimir Putin, "very shortly."

"It would have been sooner, but I guess there are security arrangements that unfortunately people have to make," Trump told reporters after a signing ceremony with Armenia and Azerbaijan at the White House.

"I think the location will be a very popular one for a lot of reasons, but we'll be announcing that a little bit later," he added.

Trump said Russia and Ukraine will swap territories as part of a peace deal.

"There'll be some swapping of territories to the betterment of both," he added.
