Trump went after former President Obama’s international deals in a morning interview surrounded by a bombardment of media questions Friday.

WATCH:

“President Obama lost Crimea, just so you understand. I want to make it so the fake news prints it properly,” Trump said. “It’s his fault.”

Trump added that Russia should be in the G8, elaborating that “I think it’s better to have Russia in than out.”

The president added that “Putin didn’t respect President Obama. President Obama lost Crimea, because president Putin didn’t respect Obama, didn’t respect our country and didn’t respect Ukraine.”

Trump went on to say, “But President Obama, not Trump — when it’s my fault, I’ll tell you,” adding that “President Obama gave away Crimea. That should have never happened.”

He also added about Obama, “When he didn’t go across the red line, what he gave away, nobody even knows.”
