Quote: "I just spoke to President Putin indirectly, and we’re going to have a phone call right after these meetings today. [N.B. Ukrainska Pravda doesn’t recognise Putin as president – ed.]

If we don’t have a trilat, then the fighting continues. And if we do, we have a good chance… He’s expecting my call when we’re finished with this meeting."

Details: Asked what he would say to Ukrainians suffering from Russian attacks, Trump said he knows many Ukrainians and they are wonderful people: “They’re smart, they’re energetic… They love their country, and we want to get this war ended, and that’s all I can do. I love the Ukrainian people, but I love all people, I love the Russian people. I love them all. I want to get the war stopped.”
