President Donald Trump said he will speak with Russian President Vladimir Putin on Tuesday about the final points of a deal to end the war in Ukraine<\/a>.<\/p>\n

In a post on his Truth Social platform, Trump said many “elements” of the Final Agreement” have been agreed to “but much remains.”<\/p>\n

“Thousands of young soldiers, and others, are being killed. Each week brings 2,500 soldier deaths, from both sides, and it must end NOW,” Trump wrote. “I look very much forward to the call with President Putin.”<\/p>\n

TRUMP, PUTIN CALL EXPECTED THIS WEEK, AS ADMIN EDGES CLOSER TO RUSSIA-UKRAINE CEASEFIRE DEAL: WITKOFF<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

Some points of discussion could involed territorial concessions by Kyiv and control of the Zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant.<\/p>\n

The Trump administration has been working on a deal to end the three-year war. Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Alexander Grushko reportedly said that the Kremlin wants an “ironclad” guarantee that Ukraine will be prohibited from joining the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO).<\/u><\/a><\/p>\n

Last week, White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt<\/u><\/a> told reporters that “we have never been closer to peace,” as the U.S. waits for Russia\u2019s answer on a 30-day ceasefire agreement.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Ukraine accepted the deal earlier in the week after a meeting with U.S. officials in Saudi Arabia, on the condition that Moscow commits to the plan.<\/p>\n

PUTIN IN NO RUSH TO FOLLOW ‘TRUMP TIME’ CEASEFIRE PROPOSAL<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy<\/a> has called for tougher sanctions on Russia and accused Putin of trying to drag out the peace talks to prolong the war.<\/p>\n

“It\u2019s clear to everyone in the world\u2014even to those who refused to acknowledge the truth for the past three years\u2014that it is Putin who continues to drag out this war,” the Ukrainian leader wrote Monday on X. “For a week now, Putin has been unable to squeeze out \u2018yes\u2019 to the ceasefire proposal. He\u2019s saying whatever he wants, but not what the whole world wants to hear.”<\/p>\n

He called for world leaders to pressure Moscow into ending the conflict.<\/p>\n

“The unconditional ceasefire proposal is essentially about saving lives, allowing diplomats to work on ensuring security and a lasting peace\u2014the proposal that Russia is ignoring,” he said. “Pressure is needed to finally make Moscow accept that their war must be brought to an end.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
