Trump says he will call Putin on Monday to discuss the war in Ukraine
- President Donald Trump announced he will call Vladimir Putin and Volodymyr Zelenskyy on Monday to discuss the war in Ukraine and seek progress toward a ceasefire.
- The conflict began in February 2022 when Russia launched an invasion, prompting harsh penalties from the U.S. And partner nations that have gradually undermined Moscow's economic development.
- The planned calls follow recent prisoner exchange commitments between Russia and Ukraine, a large drone attack by the Kremlin, and stalled negotiations marked by deep disagreements over territory and ceasefire terms.
- Trump said his conversation with Putin would concentrate on ending the ongoing violence and indicated that if Putin does not engage sincerely in talks, it might result in the imposition of further sanctions. Meanwhile, his envoy Steve Witkoff described the call as an effort to resolve diplomatic obstacles.
- These conversations represent a critical test of Trump's ability to broker peace, as Ukraine and Western allies support a 30-day unconditional ceasefire that Putin must accept for progress to be made.
