Putin's comments come on the same day that Trump said he was hopeful that Russia's war in Ukraine was nearing an endgame.

President Donald Trump says he'll meet with Russia's Vladimir Putin soon to try and end the war in Ukraine. He also expects Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy to come to Washington soon as well.

President Donald Trump teased a possible meeting with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy Monday from the Oval Office, amid his “serious discussions" with Russian President Vladimir Putin about ending the war between Russia and Ukraine.

President Donald Trump says Russian leader Vladimir Putin would accept European peacekeepers in Ukraine as part of a potential deal to end Russia’s war there.

"Russia is open for U.S.-Russia economic cooperation and believes such cooperation is key for more resilient global economy," envoy Kirill Dmitriev, appointed on February 23, said in a statement.

The leaders of Russia and China sought to project a unified front on the third anniversary of the Russian invasion of Ukraine.

China and Russia “cannot be moved away” from one another, Chinese leader Xi Jinping told his counterpart Vladimir Putin Monday, in their first phone call since US President Donald Trump upended American foreign policy with a sweeping pivot toward Moscow as he pushes for peace in Ukraine.

President Trump made the remarks to reporters at the start of a White House meeting Monday with French President Emmanuel Macron.

Russian President Vladimir Putin’s unwillingness to countenance a temporary ceasefire in Ukraine is likely to be a key early test of the thaw in US relations under President Donald Trump.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy addressed world leaders at the summit in Kyiv to mark the third anniversary of Russia's invasion.

Three years later, against all obstacles and all predictions, the civilians, journalists, soldiers, and waitresses are still working together. Ukraine’s million-man army, the largest in Europe, is still fighting.
