U.S. President Donald Trump said he spoke with Russian President Vladimir Putin on Wednesday about starting negotiations immediately to end the war in Ukraine, and said he would call Ukraine's president to inform him of the conversation.
Trump's prioritization of speaking with Russia before Ukraine is a departure from the policy of the Bidenadministration that stressed "nothing about Ukraine without Ukraine."
"We have also agreed to have our respective teams start negotiations immediately, and we will begin by calling President Zelenskiy, of Ukraine, to inform him of the conversation, something which I will be doing right now," Trump said in a post on his social media platform.
Trump said the two leaders agreed on the pressing need to stop the killing in Ukraine.
The war began three years ago when Moscow invaded its neighbor. In response the U.S. and its NATO allies have sent billions of dollars in military aid and other support to Kyiv.
Trump said he and Putin agreed to work closely together and visit each other's nations.
"I just had a lengthy and highly productive phone call with President Vladimir Putin of Russia. We discussed Ukraine, the Middle East, Energy, Artificial Intelligence, the power of the Dollar, and various other subjects," he said.

BREAKING: PRESIDENT TRUMP SAYS HE WILL INVITE PUTIN TO AMERICA AND THAT HE WILL VISIT RUSSIA— Jack Poso 🇺🇸 (@JackPosobiec) February 12, 2025
Trump gives you a choice. He can be your best friend, or your worst enemy.
There is a time for war and a time for peace.
and a time for Americans to stay the hell out of ethnic border wars.
100%
Sure, same way Russians invading Poland in WW2 was an "ethnic border war".
Are you glad it’s ending? Seriously, no disrespect intended but isn’t now about the time Putin was going to march on the Polish border?
We were told, and you repeated, the whole reason we were going to borrow and spend hundreds of billions, condemn a million Slavs to their deaths and walk a nuclear razors edge was to stop a revanchist Soviet Union. NATO lost. There is nothing to stop Putin from taking the Baltics if there was ever any intent. Do you now see that maybe that Russo/Soviet narrative was just another aspect of the Russia, Russia, Russia BS?
There’s a time for war and a time for peace. Both countries will never be the same.
MSM: More Russian collusion.
Of course, BUT its only ending, because Russians will stop invading Ukraine.
Ukraine will never be a functioning country again. ALL of it 100% avoidable! Why wouldn’t it have happened under Trump? Because Trump isn’t a warmongering merchant of death who’d destroy an entire country of 40 million and nearly start WWIII to make a buck. Unfortunately, those warmongers who did had plenty of help from globohomos seeing this as a way to pervert the world and neocon nimrods trying to own the world.
and neither will your reputation. You could have supported peace, but you chose to support Biden's war instead. We told you he was a sick man who had a political history of stupid decisions, but you ignored us and spammed us. You couldn't have made a worse choice.
In the past 3 years, Ukraine proved to President Trump that Russia was a paper tiger with a crappy military and America can focus on the real threat China.
Translation of 47’s memo:
A. Russia will keep all the oblasts it has, plus gain the parts of them it has not conquered;
B. Russia will act as a “peacekeeper” along the line of demarcation;
C. UKR will immediately withdraw from the Kursk Oblast;
D. The UKR military will immediately disarm and surrender to local Russian troops;
E. UKR will be forced to repay the US for all aid received domestic and military;
F. No further military or civil aid will be forthcoming from the US because it is not their war;
Additional Terms:
Europe will be on its own as the US is withdrawing from NATO because it is to costly, and Europe is not part of America.
See how easy it is to end a war? Just pick the most aggressive side and force the other to surrender. This is how we make America great again!!!
Putin has announced a victory parade in Moscow and Xi Jinping has launched its invasion of Taiwan and the Philippines because invasion pays.
For as wrong as you've been for the past three years it's probably best if you take up bird watching rather than politics.
Putin has announced a victory parade in Moscow and Xi Jinping has launched its invasion of Taiwan and the Philippines because invasion pays.
Let me leave this post of yours here so the Forum knows how you suggested Trump end this war
But a number of hawks asked us not to worry: pressure from the new American President on Vladimir Vladimirovich is “impossible by definition.”
—
Trump will be please to learn that. It will save a lot of time toward ending the war.
Trump can now safely call B-1s & B-52s to carpet bomb Russian positions.
What Moskva flagship doink?
We told you not to support The Biden, but you didn’t listen.
