A Trump translator for Europe
Christa Case Bryant
Finnish President Alexander Stubb speaks Finnish, Swedish, French, English, and German 鈥� and just picked up a sixth language: Trump. Mr. Stubb, who came to the U.S. on a college golfing scholarship in the 1990s, bonded with the American president on the golf course earlier this year 鈥� and has since managed to bend his ear on Russia and Ukraine.

That could help him translate on Monday when they will all meet at the White House.
