Russian President Vladimir Putin gifted U.S. President Donald Trump a portrait depicting Trump with a raised fist and blood streaming from his right ear, referencing the assassination attempt in Pennsylvania last July. The painting was delivered to the White House by Steve Witkoff, the U.S. envoy for Ukraine and the Middle East, after a meeting in Moscow. Russian artist Nikas Safronov, who has previously painted Putin, Kim Jong Un, and Pope Francis, created the work. CNN provided an exclusive look at the portrait, which Safronov said was intended to show Trump's bravery and potentially bring the two countries together.
