Trump Plans Meeting with Putin on Ukraine Next Week; Possible Trilateral with Zelensky May Follow: Reports

  • A White House official indicated that US President Donald Trump may hold a face-to-face meeting with Russian leader Vladimir Putin as early as next week in an effort to negotiate an end to the ongoing conflict in Ukraine.
  • This potential meeting follows Trump's special envoy Steve Witkoff's three-hour talks with Putin in Moscow days before a U.S. sanctions deadline.
  • Although Trump and Ukrainian President Zelenskyy had a phone conversation following Witkoff’s meeting, significant disagreements between Russia and Ukraine persist regarding their conditions.
  • Trump expressed optimism about the likelihood of a meeting occurring, while Secretary of State Marco Rubio emphasized that several steps still need to take place before such a meeting can happen.
  • The scheduled meeting would mark Trump and Putin's first face-to-face encounter since Trump's return to office, with no promise it will end the fighting.
