Trump says Russia and Ukraine to "immediately" start ceasefire talks

ai generated text

US President Trump spoke with President Putin for over two hours seeking a Russia-Ukraine ceasefire, but Putin refused an immediate halt, calling the talks “constructive” and agreeing to initiate future peace negotiations potentially hosted by the Vatican.

Ursula Von Der Leyen
European Commission
1. I want to thank President Trump for his tireless efforts to bring a ceasefire to Ukraine.
Giorgia Meloni
Brothers of Italy
1. Work is under way to immediately start negotiations between the parties that can lead to a ceasefire as soon as possible and build the conditions for a just and lasting peace in Ukraine.
2. In this regard, the Holy Father's willingness to host the talks at the Vatican was considered positive. Italy is ready to do its part to facilitate contacts and work for peace.
Vladimir Putin
Kremlin
1. We have agreed with the US president that Russia will offer and is ready to work with Ukraine on a memorandum on a possible future peace agreement.
2. I would like to note that, on the whole, Russia's position is clear. The main thing for us is to eliminate the root causes of this crisis.
3. The U.S. president expressed his position on the secession of hostilities, ceasefire, and from my end, I have emphasized that Russia stands for peaceful resolution of the Ukrainian crisis. We just need to outline the most effective routes of moving towards peace.
Volodymyr Zelenskiy
Ukraine Government
1. Pressure on Russia will push it toward real peace – this is obvious to everyone around the world.
2. I asked him [Trump] before his conversation with Putin not to make decisions about Ukraine without us.
3. No one will withdraw our troops from our territories.
4. If Putin puts forward unrealistic demands, this will mean that Russia continues to drag out the war, and deserves that Europe, America, and the world act accordingly, including with further sanctions. Russia must end the war it started, and it can begin doing so any day.
5. It is crucial for all of us that the United States does not distance itself from the talks and the pursuit of peace, because the only one who benefits from that is Putin.
James David Vance
Republican Party
1. We realise there's a bit of an impasse here. And I think the president's going to say to President Putin: 'Look, are you serious? Are you real about this?'.
Karoline Leavitt
Republican Party
1. He wants to see this fighting end, he wants the war to end, and we believe we have leverage in negotiating a deal.
Donald Trump
Republican Party
1. Negotiations between Russia and Ukraine will begin immediately.
2. Vladimir, you can pick up the phone anytime. I'll be happy to answer and happy to talk with you.
3. The tone and spirit of the conversation were excellent.
4. The conditions for that will be negotiated between the two parties, as it can only be, because they know details of a negotiation that nobody else would be aware of.
5. Russia wants to do largescale TRADE with the United States when this catastrophic 'bloodbath' is over, and I agree.
Ivan Timofeev
Russian International Affairs Council
1. Russia at this certain point can continue its military operations. Sanctions are inflicting harm but this harm is not critical for macroeconomics of Russia.
