The US and Russian leaders have held a lengthy phone call Monday focused on the Ukraine conflict
US President Donald Trump has said the conversation with his Russian counterpart Vladimir Putin “went very well.” The two leaders spoke for over two hours on Monday, primarily about the Ukraine conflict. Putin also described the talk as “very useful.”
In a post on Truth Social shortly after Monday’s talks, Trump wrote that the tone and spirit of the conversation were “excellent,” adding, “If it wasn’t, I would say so now, rather than later.”
“Russia and Ukraine will immediately start negotiations toward a Ceasefire and, more importantly, an END to the War. The conditions for that will be negotiated between the two parties, as it can only be, because they know details of a negotiation that nobody else would be aware of,” the US president stated.
Russia “wants to do large-scale TRADE” with the US, Trump has claimed, adding that the potential settlement of the conflict would help Ukraine to become “a great beneficiary” of trade as well.
“There is a tremendous opportunity for Russia to create massive amounts of jobs and wealth. Its potential is UNLIMITED,” Trump wrote.
