U.S. President Donald Trump will talk to Vladimir Putin and Volodymyr Zelenskyy on Monday in a bid to end Ukraine's "bloody therapy" due to concerns that Washington is continuing to push for peace efforts by agents.
"Hopefully this will be a productive day, a ceasefire will happen, this very violent war, a war that will never happen will end," Trump wrote on Saturday's Truth social media platform.
The theme of the phone, he said, would be trade and stop the "bloody" of deaths in Russia and Ukraine.
Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said on Monday that his phone call with Putin will be held on Moscow time (10:00 a.m. ET) and consider the outcome of the negotiations held in Istanbul last week.
The U.S. mediation will take place in part of the initial hope to bring Moscow and Kiev heads of state together in 2022, following the first face-to-face negotiations in Istanbul last week in 2022. Putin and Trump eventually rejected the meeting, which eventually reached a deal to exchange prisoners of war but failed to achieve the peace process.
Despite a commitment from the United States to fulfill Trump’s promise to urgently achieve peace, the Three Years War in Ukraine has ended the Three Years War in recent months. Trump's threats that Washington could withdraw from the diplomatic process without an immediate resolution have raised concerns that the White House might reduce its important military and humanitarian support for Ukraine.
Trump's dormant relationship with the Kremlin under the administration of his predecessor, Joe Biden, has recently been reluctant to criticize Putin directly, increasingly conquering the possibility of further sanctions on Moscow and supporting calls from Ukraine and Europe that depend on 30 days.
The outline of a temporary truce or a permanent peace proposal remains elusive in the case of the biggest Russian demands and Zelenskyy's unwillingness to accept potential territorial concessions.
"The United States has proposed a strong peace plan and we welcome the Prisoners Exchange Agreement reached in Istanbul. Let's not miss this huge opportunity. The time to end this war is now."
"He explained to me that they will prepare a document outlining their demand for a ceasefire, which will lead to broader negotiations," Rubio said in a later television interview with CBS. "Obviously, the Ukrainian side will be making its own proposal. Hopefully this will come soon."
However, Washington has continued patience with the stagnation process.
Rubio stressed: "We don't want to be involved in this process of infinite conversation. Some progress has to be made, some progress has to be made."
Zelenskyy also met with Rubio and U.S. Vice President JD Vance on Sunday to reject the “low-level delegation of non-decision-making manufacturers” that Russia deployed to Istanbul last week, adding that he reiterated that “he said Ukraine could truly engage in diplomacy and attitudes to make it a more important cease and could soon become complete and irrelevant.
European officials have been out of sight in many of the recent peace brokerage agencies, interacting with the White House with the British, American, Italian, French and German leaders, discussing Trump's upcoming interaction with Putin on Sunday's call.
"Looking forward to tomorrow's call from President Trump and President Putin, leaders discussed the need for an unconditional ceasefire and asked President Putin to take peace negotiations seriously," said British government readers. "They also discussed the use of sanctions if Russia fails to seriously participate in the ceasefire and peace negotiations."
