Trump says he will call Putin on Monday to discuss the war in Ukraine
- President Donald Trump announced plans to speak separately on Monday with the Russian leader and the Ukrainian head of state to discuss the ongoing conflict in Ukraine and explore the possibility of advancing a ceasefire.
- These calls follow Russia's invasion of Ukraine in February 2022 and recent peace talks in Istanbul that led to prisoner exchanges but no ceasefire agreement.
- Russia carried out its most extensive drone offensive since the beginning of the full-scale invasion, deploying 273 drones and decoys targeting Kyiv, Dnipropetrovsk, and Donetsk, while both Ukraine and Russia agreed to swap 1,000 prisoners each.
- Trump expressed hope for a 'productive day' and said his discussion with Putin will focus on stopping the 'bloodbath' killing soldiers, while his envoy Steve Witkoff said the calls aim to 'clear up some of the logjam.'
- The talks will test Trump's dealmaker reputation amid enduring disagreements, including Putin's demand for Ukraine to recognize annexed territories and Zelenskyy's refusal to cede land.
