President Trump on his conversation with Putin:
We had a great conversation. He is wanting to make a deal and if Zelenskyy is wanting to make a deal that'd be very nice.
Comment from me: *sighs heavily.* Nothing indicates that Putin is ready to make any kind of sensible deal.
President Trump and Putin held a phone call and "exchanged views on the results of Witkoff and Kushner’s visits to Moscow and Kyiv," Putin's aide Ushakov said.
He also said:
▪️ The conversation was "constructive and candid."
▪️ "Putin told Trump that Russia has absolutely no aggressive plans toward Europe."
▪️ "Trump is interested in achieving a breakthrough in the peace settlement during his presidential term. Putin supported this approach."
▪️ "Putin gave Trump an objective and detailed analysis of developments in the course of the 'special military operation.'"
