0:52Now PlayingPresident Donald Trump says serious talks are being held with Russia's Vladimir Putin about ending the war in Ukraine, but he says "it doesn't mean anything until we hear what the final outcome is." Trump spoke at the White House.
Putin said he wants to discuss a proposed ceasefire in Ukraine with his US counterpart Donald Trump, though he warned that any truce should lead to a long-term resolution of the war.
“The idea itself is correct and we certainly support it, but there are issues that we need to discuss,” Putin said at a Moscow news conference Thursday. “We need to talk to our American colleagues and partners about this, maybe call President Trump and discuss it with him, but we support the idea of ending this conflict by peaceful means.”
Despite the ambiguity in Putin’s comments, Trump took an optimistic view. “We’re getting word that things are going OK in Russia,” Trump told reporters at the White House during a visit by NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte. The president added, though, that “it doesn’t mean anything until we hear what the final outcome is” and that if Russia doesn’t sign on to the truce “that’ll be a very disappointing moment for the world.”
Trump said the US has started discussing outlines of a final agreement with Ukraine, including land that might be kept or forfeited and which side would keep a large power plant. “It’s not an easy process,” Trump said. He didn’t elaborate on the disputed plant, but the Zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant — Europe’s largest — has been seized by Russian forces since early in the war.
