US President Donald Trump has expressed his commitment to ending the war between Russia and Ukraine as quickly as possible during a phone conversation with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy.
Operative Information Center-OMM reports, citing foreign media outlets and sources familiar with the discussion, that the dialogue focused on accelerating a diplomatic resolution to the ongoing conflict.
According to the sources, the conversation between US President Donald Trump and Zelenskyy took place in a very sincere and positive atmosphere. Zelenskyy expressed his gratitude to the US leader for the continued support and emphasized that only he could potentially convince Vladimir Putin to bring an end to the hostilities.
One source noted that while Zelenskyy expressed hope for the war to conclude within the current year, US President Donald Trump responded by stating that the conflict has dragged on for too long and indicated his desire to see it resolved within a month.
Following the call, Zelenskyy announced that trilateral negotiations involving Russia and the United States are expected to take place early next month, according to Reuters. Writing on the X social media platform, the Ukrainian leader stated: We expect this meeting to create an opportunity to move negotiations to the leadership level. President Trump supports this sequence of steps. This is the only way to resolve all complex and sensitive issues and finally end the war.
The diplomatic engagement comes at a critical juncture for international relations. Since assuming office in January 2025, US President Donald Trump has prioritized the mediation of global conflicts, emphasizing a policy of rapid de-escalation. This potential trilateral summit would mark a significant shift in the peace process, aiming to establish a sustainable framework for security in Eastern Europe while addressing the territorial and political concerns of the involved parties.
