U.S. President Trump plans to host a call with Russian leader Putin as part of ongoing efforts to secure a halt in fighting in Ukraine.

On Monday, US President Donald Trump plans to make a phone call to Russian President Vladimir Putin to support the ongoing ceasefire negotiations aimed at resolving the conflict in Ukraine. While last week’s direct negotiations in Istanbul between delegations from Russia and Ukraine did not yield a concrete commitment to a potential truce, discussions are continuing in an effort to find a resolution.
