Donald Trump is to speak to Vladimir Putin on Tuesday – with the two expected to discuss territory and control of the Zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant – after the Russian president last week pushed back on a US-brokered plan for an immediate ceasefire in Ukraine with a series of sweeping conditions he said would need to be met.
The US president said on Monday that many elements of a final deal on Ukraine had been agreed but much remained, ahead of the call with his Russian counterpart. “I look very much forward to the call with President Putin,” he wrote on Truth Social.
