Trump and Putin Discuss Potential Talks Between Russia and Ukraine, Suggest Vatican as Possible Host
In a recent phone call between American President Donald Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin, Trump announced that the conversation went ‘very well’ and suggested that talks between Russia and Ukraine could start ‘immediately’. The two leaders discussed the possibility of hosting these talks at the Vatican, a neutral ground that could provide a conducive environment for diplomatic negotiations. This development comes amidst escalating tensions between Russia and Ukraine, with ongoing conflicts in eastern Ukraine and concerns over Russia’s annexation of Crimea. Trump’s positive remarks about the call indicate a potential shift towards diplomatic solutions to the longstanding conflict in the region. The Vatican, known for its history of hosting peace talks and mediating international disputes, could play a crucial role in facilitating dialogue between the two countries. As details of the potential talks continue to emerge, the international community watches closely to see if this diplomatic initiative will lead to a peaceful resolution of the conflict in Ukraine.
