Phone call was productive and positive, Putin’s special envoy says
Putin’s special envoy Kirill Dmitriev says the call between Russia’s President and Donald Trump was “positive and productive”.
He also says the next steps were “clear”, posting on X alongside an image of Donald Trump’s Truth Social post.
‘I believe great progress was made,’ Trump says
We can bring you some more lines now from Donald Trump’s post on Truth Social.
He says “high level advisors” from both countries will meet next week, led by Secretary of State Marco Rubio. A location for that meeting is yet to be determined, he adds.
After that, he says, the two leaders will meet in Budapest, Hungary. He does not say when that meeting will take place.
He says he’ll discuss his conversation with Putin when he meets Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky in the Oval Office tomorrow.
“I believe great progress was made with today’s telephone conversation,” his posts concludes.
Trump says he will meet Putin in Hungary
Donald Trump has just posted on Truth Social following his phone call with Vladimir Putin.
He says the call was “good and productive”, adding that “high level advisors” from both countries will meet next week.
“President Putin and I will then meet in an agreed upon location, Budapest, Hungary, to see if we can bring this ‘inglorious’ War, between Russia and Ukraine, to an end,” he says.
US senators weighing up further Russia sanctions
As we wait to hear what Trump and Putin have discussed, there are reports that members of Congress are considering moving forward with a bipartisan bill on further Russia sanctions.
The top Senate Republican, John Thune, told reporters moments ago that “the time has come” for a vote on the bill which has been in the works for some time.
“I think the time’s right… we need to move,” he said.
Thune said they were working through technical issues with the bill, but were hoping to schedule a vote soon.
Senators are also reportedly working to arrange a bipartisan meeting with Zelensky when he is in Washington tomorrow.

Once again TACO has done what TACO does best. mafia land have been granted permission to bomb Ukraine for another few months. Ukraine will not see any Tomahawks from this administration.
Thats called ‘very productive’……………………..Zelensky can stay tomorrow at home.
Here we go again. Fuck him he’s the sleepiest MOFO this world ever produced. May he rot in hell
putler will never go to Hungary. That would mean flying over at least one NATO country to get there. This is is just more stalling by TACO and putler.
Actually the only people worst are the maga scum bags in congress. And don’t dare suggest I have TDS. HE’S LUCIFER REINCARNATED.
Anyone using this fake medical condition is a f*cking moron without concrete arguments.
You have to be mentally sick in the head to take praise from a war criminal about your wife helping to repatriate kids he abducted in the first place.
Anyone with even half a brain knows that the orange gangster is demented.
Trump: I want a Trump tower in every Russian city over 1.000.000 people, and in every city over 100.000 people 3 Mc Donalds with only Coca Cola as drink.
Putin: Its a big sacrifice for Russia, but thats the price Russia will pay for the return of Ukraine to Mother Russia.
So which putler will be going to Hungary? The real one is wanted by the ICC for war crimes. Hungary ratified the Rome Statute in 1999.
Taco was born a coward, he lived as a coward, and he will die as a coward. He’s also human trash.

On putler’s little pencil wiener.
