A phone call between Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin could lead to a temporary ceasefire in the ongoing Ukraine conflict. The conversation occurred early Tuesday.
Putin proposed a ceasefire for the upcoming Victory Day on May 9. Trump welcomed this proposal, emphasizing the urgent need to end the war with Ukraine.
The discussion lasted about an hour. Key topics included the Ukraine war and the Iran nuclear crisis.
Putin is expected to make an official announcement regarding the ceasefire soon. Kremlin sources described the conversation as professional and friendly.
Earlier that day, Ukrainian drones attacked a major oil facility in Russia, located approximately 1,500 kilometers from Ukraine. The attack caused a significant fire.
Trump also warned that Iran must not become a nuclear-armed state. He mentioned that 80% of Iran’s missile production facilities have been destroyed.
The situation remains fluid. Further developments are likely as both leaders navigate these critical issues.
