Trump and Putin Discuss Ukraine Conflict, Trade, and Potential Peace TalksPreviousNext

US President Donald Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin held an hour-long phone call discussing the Ukraine conflict, trade, prisoner exchanges, and US-Russia relations. Trump expressed a desire for a swift end to the war, noting both Putin and Ukrainian President Zelenskyy appear willing to negotiate, though personal animosity between the two leaders remains a key obstacle. Trump also suggested the possibility of trilateral talks involving himself, Putin, and Zelenskyy. US diplomatic efforts continue amid ongoing fighting and stalled negotiations.
