Trump: 'Seems' like Syria shot down a Russian plane

US President Donald Trump said on Tuesday that Syria likely shot down a Russian military plane near its coast.

“It sounds to me and it seems to me based on a review of the facts that Syria shot down a Russian plane. And I understand about 14 people were killed and that’s a very sad thing but that’s what happens,” Trump said at a joint press conference at the White House with Polish President Andrzej Duda, as quoted by Reuters.
