Trump says he discussed a Ukraine ceasefire with Putin

  • On Wednesday, U.S. President Donald Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin held a 90-minute phone call discussing a potential temporary ceasefire in Ukraine for the Victory Day holiday in May.
  • The leaders placed significant emphasis on the Middle East conflict, with Putin offering assistance regarding Iran's nuclear program while Trump urged focus on resolving the four-year-old war in Ukraine.
  • According to Kremlin aide Yuri Ushakov, Putin proposed the ceasefire to mark the Soviet Union's role in defeating Nazi Germany, an initiative Trump supported during their "frank and businesslike" conversation.
  • Both leaders expressed similar assessments of Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, claiming his administration is prolonging the conflict, though fighting has remained at a virtual stalemate in recent months.
  • Victory Day celebrations in major Russian cities will occur in a limited format this year due to Ukrainian drone attacks, marking the first time in nearly 20 years without military hardware displays.
