U.S. President Donald Trump stated that negotiations to end the war between Russia and Ukraine have taken place and have yielded progress. He does not disclose details of these negotiations with Vladimir Putin.

'I believe we are making progress. We want to stop the war between Ukraine and Russia,' said the U.S. president.
