Trump and Zelenskyy wrap up call a day after talks with Russia about possible ceasefire
The HinduPresident Donald Trump and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy spoke for about an hour Wednesday morning, the U.S. leader said, a day after he spoke with Russian President Vladimir Putin. Mr. Zelenskyy said earlier that a vow by Mr. Putin not to attack energy infrastructure was “very much at odds with reality” following an overnight barrage of drone strikes across the country. Russian strikes on civilian areas followed Mr. Putin's refusal to back a full 30-day ceasefire during discussions with Mr. Trump, though he said he would immediately pause strikes against the power grid. The Institute for the Study of War, a Washington-based think tank, said that Mr. Putin’s demands during the call with Mr. Trump would amount to “Ukrainian capitulation.” “Putin is attempting to hold the temporary ceasefire proposal hostage in order to extract preemptive concessions ahead of formal negotiations to end the war,” the ISW said in an analysis of readouts from the calls. If Russia refuses to agree, we need to increase our efforts to strengthen Ukraine and ratchet up pressure on Russia to convince them to come to the negotiating table.” White House national security adviser Mike Waltz said on social media that he and his Russian counterpart, Yuri Ushakov, agreed Wednesday that their teams would meet soon in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, "to focus on implementing and expanding the partial ceasefire President Trump secured from Russia.” It was not immediately clear who was part of the delegations or if Ukrainian officials were also invited to take part in the Saudi Arabia talks.
