Trump Calls Phone Call with Putin 'Wonderful' After 2-Hour Talk

US President Donald Trump on Tuesday described his phone call with Russian President Vladimir Putin as "wonderful," following a two-hour conversation that addressed the ongoing war in Ukraine and broader geopolitical issues.

Trump made the remarks to reporters after the call, saying the two leaders had a "very productive" discussion. He did not disclose specific details of what was agreed upon but indicated that diplomatic channels remain open.

The call comes amid continued fighting in eastern Ukraine, where Russian forces have maintained pressure along multiple front lines. Ukraine's allies in Europe and NATO have expressed concern about any potential negotiations that might reduce military support for Kyiv.

Ukrainian officials have not yet officially commented on the call, though President Volodymyr Zelensky has previously insisted that any peace negotiations must include Ukraine at the table and cannot result in territorial concessions.

The phone call is the latest in a series of contacts between Trump and Putin since Trump returned to the White House, reviving questions about the future direction of US policy toward the conflict.
