According to reports, President Donald Trump is confirmed to be holding an Ukraine peace talk with Russian President Vladimir Putin on Tuesday, during which they will talk land and power plants.
Negotiations over the future of the Ukraine War have been continuing behind closed doors between the United States of America and the Russian Federation, President Trump said, as he revealed that leader talks are scheduled for Tuesday.
President Trump greeted journalists aboard Air Force One as he flew from Florida to Washington D.C. late Sunday night and opened with thoughts on the Ukraine War before taking questions. Summarising the advances in communications with Russia in recent days — which, until weeks ago, the two countries had been out of contact for years, following the Biden Presidency’s freeze in response to Moscow’s invasion of Ukraine — President Trump remarked: “We learned a lot, we’re doing pretty well I think with Russia. We’ll see if we have something to announce maybe, by Tuesday.”
Trump revealed, “I’ll be speaking to President Putin on Tuesday, a lot of work has been done over the weekend. We want to see if we can bring that war to an end. Maybe we can, maybe we can’t, but I think we have a very good chance.”
He also stated that there were ongoing discussions on “dividing up certain assets” with “a lot of it already discussed very much by both sides, Ukraine and Russia”.
Trump continued, “I think we’ll be talking about land. There’s a lot of land, it’s a lot different than it was before the war as you know. We’ll be talking about land, we’ll be talking about power plants because that’s a big question.”
The president did not specify which power plants they were set to discuss, it is speculated that the famous Zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant will be among them.
The two world leaders’ last known talk was on February 12th.
