Trump and Putin soon call a US messenger to call the ceasefire deal
US President Donald Trump and his Russian counterpart Vladimir Putin will speak in the coming days, as there is talk of a possible ceasefire in Ukraine in a three -year war.
US envoy Steve Witcoff, who met Putin in Moscow on Thursday, told CNN that he hoped that “would be a call with the two presidents this week”.
“We are also continuing to attach and interacting with Ukrainian,” he said. “We are advising them on everything that we are thinking about.”
Last week, the US and Ukraine agreed to propose a 30-day ceasefire to Russia. While Putin said that he supported a ceasefire, he also set a list of difficult situations to achieve peace.
Witcoff said in an interview on Sunday: “I think both the presidents are really going to have a good and positive discussion this week.”
He also said that the teams of American negotiators will meet both Ukraine and Russia counterparts during the coming weeks.
Vitkoff said that he believes that a deal would reach “in the coming weeks”.
“I really hope we are going to see some progress here,” he said.
During his election campaign, Trump promised to end the war repeatedly, which began in 2022 with a full-scale invasion of Russia, on the “Day One” of a new administration.
After less than a month after the opening, Trump called with Putin that it was allegedly 90 minutes About starting the conversation immediately when the war is finished.
Witcoff refused to answer a question as to how the Russian-quarry land in Ukraine could be addressed in a possible deal. Russia currently controls around the fifth of Ukraine.
The messenger said that Trump was actively participating in the diplomat.
As an example, Vitchoff said that with Putin’s meeting “within five to 10 minutes” on Thursday, he returned to the US embassy as well as Vice President JD Vance, White House Chief of Staff Susie Wiles Susie Wiles and National Security Advisory Mike Waltz.
“So the President is getting updates on everything in real time which is happening and he is involved in every important decision here,” he said.
