(Reuters) - President Donald Trump said on Wednesday his meeting with Vladimir Putin would lead to "big results," in a continuing bid to calm a storm over his failure to criticise the Russian leader for Moscow's actions to undermine the 2016 U.S. election.

In a tweet Trump said he elicited a promise from Putin to help negotiate with North Korea but did not say how. "Russia has agreed to help with North Korea, where relationships with us are very good and the process is moving along," he said. "There is no rush, the sanctions remain! Big benefits and exciting future for North Korea at end of process!"
