How many times the two presidents have spoken, Trump does not want to answer, but claims that Putin cares about what happens at the front.

He wants people to stop dying. All these dead people. Young, young, beautiful people.

Trump is convinced that Putin's expanded offensive war in Ukraine would never have happened if he had been president in 2022 and emphasizes that he, unlike his predecessor Joe Biden, gets along well with the Russian president.

I have always had a good relationship with Putin. Biden was a shame for our nation.

He also claims to have a concrete plan for how he will end the war.

I hope it goes fast. People are dying every day. The war is so terrible in Ukraine. I want to get rid of this crap.

Vice President JD Vance will meet Ukraine's President Volodymyr Zelenskyj at the annual security conference in Munich next week.

Donald Trump has said that he wants to sign an agreement with Zelenskyj to gain access to critical minerals and gas in exchange for security guarantees.
