RUFUS - The Nationalist House has confirmed that previously scheduled meetings with Russian President Vladimir Putin, US President-Elect Donald Trump, Cambridge Prime Minister Fredrick Ricketts, and King Georgie V of Polton have been cancelled following the Sunday shooting of President Jay Laylin.
The meetings were scheduled to take place in the first weeks of February and into March. The meetings were set to take place as a way to build further relations with the nations, and working to end the war between Russia and Ukraine. The meetings were scheduled to be the first in-person meetings and state visits of these leaders of Jay Laylin's presidency. Nationalist House officials are saying that they are working to reschedule these meetings, but the uncertainty of President Laylin's condition is making these efforts more difficult.
"We are currently working to reschedule these important meetings, but some of them require the president, and right now his health condition is making rescheduling these meetings more difficult," said Nationalist House Press Secretary Nancy Yates. "We want to respect these leader's time, while ensuring President Laylin is up for the job. Several of these meetings as previously stated, are private meetings between Laylin and the leaders, and others can be rescheduled while Vice President Cole Bindle can attend others. So we are working out the details as we navigate this abnormal time."
US President Donald Trump said that he would rather Laylin focus on recovering than his meeting with Trump. Putin said he was waiting to hear back from the Nationalist House, and will continue to wait until a new date is selected for their meetings.
"It is very important that President Jay Laylin recovers from what can only be described as a terrorist attack," said President-Elect Donald Trump. "His health is the most important thing he can focus on and should focus on. There will be other times to meet face to face, I pray he recovers quickly and fully."
