After calls with both countries' leaders on Wednesday, President Donald Trump seems hopeful that the war between Ukraine and Russia could be nearing its end.
Trump shared his take on phone calls with Russian President Vladimir Putin and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy in a series of posts to Truth Social. Trump called his first call with Putin since assuming the presidency "highly productive" and announced plans to send Vice President J.D. Vance and Secretary of State Marco Rubio to mediate negotiations between the two countries in Munich.
