Details: The media briefing was short. Following the 2.5-hour talks, Trump and Putin declined to take questions and only delivered speeches. The US president was very reserved in his remarks, essentially limiting himself to expressions of gratitude.

Trump shared no details of the negotiations with journalists but promised to brief his European counterparts.

“I’ll call up NATO in a little while, I’ll call up the various people that I think are appropriate, and I’ll, of course, call up President Zelenskyy and tell him about today’s meeting,” he stated, adding that it was a good and very productive meeting and that the dialogue should continue.

“We’ll speak to you very soon and probably see you again very soon!”, he said to Putin.

Putin replied, “Next time in Moscow?”

“Ooh, that’s an interesting one. I don’t know, I’ll get a little heat on that one, but I could see it possibly happening. Thank you very much, Vladimir,” Trump said.
