WASHINGTON: US President Donald Trump has said that he would soon speak to his Russian counterpart Vladimir Putin and help in settling the war in Ukraine.
Trump’s comments came a day after Putin said Russia is ready for talks with the US on a broad range of issues.
“He wants to speak and will be speaking soon. I’ve spoken to (Ukrainian) President (Volodymyr) Zelensky numerous times, and they’d like to see peace. They would like to see an end to the war. I think President Putin would like to see an end to the war too,” Trump told reporters on Saturday. PTI
