Trump thanks Putin for expelling diplomats

President Trump thanked Russian 🇷🇺 President Vladimir Putin, for expelling hundreds of U.S. 🇺🇸 diplomatic employees from Russia 🇷🇺, saying he appreciated the ability to cut ✄ the federal government's payroll 💴.

Trump's remarks were his first comments on the topic, since Putin last month announced 🔊 the U.S. 🇺🇸 diplomatic mission in the Kremlin cut ✄ its staff by 755 people.

Putin explained that was tired of waiting to see whether Russia' 🇷🇺 relationship with the U.S. 🇺🇸 would improve.

Expelling U.S. 🇺🇸 diplomats, however, doesn't necessarily remove 🚫 them from the federal government's payroll 💴 -- they just can't stay in Russia 🇷🇺.
