Trump and Putin to Discuss Ukraine Cease-Fire in Upcoming Call

Leaders set to engage for the first time since Ukraine's cease-fire announcement as tensions escalate.


Former President Trump's push for a resolution continues amid complex negotiations.

President Trump and President Vladimir V. Putin are slated to hold a phone conversation on Tuesday, marking their first known dialogue since Ukraine expressed support for a U.S.-facilitated cease-fire arrangement, contingent upon Russia's compliance. The discussions are anticipated to revolve around significant issues, including the management of power plants and the allocation of Ukrainian resources.

Following multiple rounds of negotiations, Trump has reiterated his urgency for a rapid truce, while Putin appears to be positioning for further concessions. Trump recently remarked on Truth Social about the ongoing complexities, stating, “A lot remains to be done” yet emphasizing that “the war must end NOW,” revealing his anticipation for the upcoming exchange with Putin.

Key points for consideration include:
- Current cease-fire propositions
- Russia's perspective on the situation
- Topics for their conversation
- Overview of the conflict's dynamics
- U.S.-Ukraine relations and recent controversies
- Required concessions and guarantees from both parties

A significant meeting took place last week in Saudi Arabia, where Secretary of State Marco Rubio and National Security Adviser Michael Waltz engaged with Ukrainian representatives including Andriy Yermak, the chief of staff to Ukraine's president, and key defense officials.
