Trump speaks with Putin on the phone in hopes of making ceasefire progress

  • On Monday, President Donald Trump conducted individual phone conversations with the leaders of Russia and Ukraine to promote ceasefire discussions amid the ongoing conflict between the two nations.
  • These calls followed stalled broader peace talks and Putin’s rejection of Zelenskyy’s suggestion for a face-to-face meeting, resulting in lower-level negotiations without a ceasefire.
  • During a more than two-hour call with Putin, Trump stressed stopping the ‘‘bloodbath’’ killing over 5,000 soldiers weekly and warned that additional sanctions could follow if Russia failed to negotiate in good faith.
  • Both parties committed to swapping 1,000 prisoners each, submitting comprehensive plans to halt hostilities, and facilitating a summit between their top leaders as part of the negotiation process.
  • Putin expressed readiness to continue talks without major breakthroughs, while Trump remains cautiously hopeful but indicated the U.S. May walk away if Russia is not serious about peace.
