Senator John McCain (R-AZ) on Friday suggested that President Donald Trump should cancel his meeting next week with Russian President Vladimir Putin if he is not prepared to hold Putin "accountable" for aggression toward the U.S.

"President Trump must be willing to confront Putin from a position of strength and demonstrate that there will be a serious price to pay for his ongoing aggression towards the United States and democracies around the world. If President Trump is not prepared to hold Putin accountable, the summit in Helsinki should not move forward," McCain said in a statement quoted by The Hill.
