Trump and Putin Discuss Potential Ukraine Peace Talks
In a previously undisclosed call, Donald Trump spoke with Russian President Vladimir Putin about resolving the ongoing conflict in Ukraine. The conversation, reported by The Washington Post, occurred after Trump’s recent presidential victory. Sources suggest Trump urged Putin to avoid escalating tensions, expressing hope for follow-up discussions on peace efforts in Europe. Trump, who has claimed he could end the war ‘in a day,’ might be considering territorial concessions as part of a resolution. The call also follows Trump’s dialogue with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky and a separate discussion with German Chancellor Olaf Scholz.
