The presidents of the United States, Donald Trump, and Russia, Vladimir Putin, will hold a telephone conversation today, the second in just over a month, a topic that focuses all the media attention here.
“I will speak with President Putin on Tuesday,” the US president said the day before aboard his Air Force One plane.
According to him, a lot of work was done during the weekend. “We want to see if we can end that war,” Trump added, referring to the war between Russia and Ukraine that has now passed the three years.
President Trump even mentioned some of the issues he and Putin will address. “We will talk about territories. We will talk about power plants,” he stressed.
The first conversation between the two leaders took place on February 12, an event that took many by surprise due to the change of course that events were beginning to take. Ukraine and Europe immediately felt excluded from participating in an eventual peace agreement.
Last week, the U.S. President’s special envoy for the Middle East, Steve Witkoff, said that, although much remains to be discussed, he is convinced that Putin and Trump will have a productive conversation.
Witkoff met with Putin in Moscow to assess the offer of a 30-day ceasefire with Ukraine, something that was later agreed at the Saudi Arabian meeting between Washington and Kiev.
Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov confirmed the call and that the leaders will discuss several issues on the international agenda with an emphasis on the issue of resolving the conflict around Ukraine, although he refused to reveal details, warning that “we never get ahead of events”.
