Washington DC: US President Donald Trump shared that the peace talks are on with Russia and emphasised that the US would “like them to stop” as the war is resulting in the deaths of thousands of people.
Trump made the remarks during his flight on board Air Force One on the ongoing Russia-Ukraine war, and if any peace deal is expected, US President Donald Trump said, “We are talking to Russia, we would like them to stop. I don’t like them bombing on and on, and every week thousands of young people being killed.”
His remarks come after earlier Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy wrote in a post on X that Russia launched missiles from the Black Sea. He gave a call for a ceasefire in his post on X and said, “A ceasefire at sea is not just about free navigation and the export of food products — it is, above all, about overall security and bringing peace closer.”
He further added, “If there is a ceasefire, it must be unconditional — one that does not allow for the destruction of life. Ukraine has agreed to the United States’ proposal of a full, unconditional ceasefire. Putin is refusing. We are awaiting a response from the United States—none has come so far, and we also expect a response from all in Europe and around the world who truly want peace.”
French President Emmanuel Macron reiterated this sentiment, writing on X about the need for a ceasefire to take place as soon as possible. (ANI)
