Trump to speak to Putin and Zelensky
President Donald Trump is hoping separate phone calls Monday with Russian leader Vladimir Putin and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky will make progress toward a ceasefire in the war in Ukraine.
Trump expressed his hopes for a ‘productive day’ Monday — and a ceasefire — in a social media post.
His effort will also include calls to NATO leaders.
Russia, which launched what Kyiv called a ‘record’ drone attack on Ukraine at the weekend, said Monday it would prefer to end the conflict through diplomacy and described the upcoming call as ‘important.’
