Trump says he discussed a Ukraine ceasefire with Putin
US President Donald Trump says he has discussed a possible ceasefire in the four-year war in Ukraine in a phone call with Russian President Vladimir Putin.
He spoke after the Kremlin reported the two leaders discussed a temporary Ukraine ceasefire to mark the anniversary of the end of World War II next month.
“We had a good talk, I’ve known him a long time,” Trump said.
The two leaders had their last publicly reported phone call on March 9.
Trump, speaking to reporters as he met with astronauts from the Artemis II mission in the Oval Office, said he suggested “a little bit of a ceasefire” in the war in Ukraine in his phone call with the Russian leader.
